polycom vvx 400 issue with transfer while i''m in hold

[Anonymous]

Hi everyone,

I have an issue with a transfer on a hold, the scenario described below:

The phone is configured with five accounts(Lines), two speed dial- One for call park (*70), and the second is retrieve park(*71).

My PBX (PortaSwitch MR50) require to place the call on hold and then to press *70

but the problem that I am facing now is when im in a call and placing the call on Hold >> pressing the "call park" key(*70) - Once that is done, the phone automatically trying to park the call through the second line(Account). that, of course, is not possible since the live call is from the first line and NOT the second line, hence the call is not parked and stays in a hold mode - THE PARK FAILED. 

How can we configure and avoid the phone from parking a call through a different line and make sure the live call is parked through the designated live line.

Hello @Matan,

I suggest you look at the parameter called call.stickyAutoLineSeize 

From the Admin Guide:

• 0 - Dialing through the call list uses the line index for the previous call. Dialing through the
  contact directory uses a random line index.
• 1 - The phone uses sticky line seize behavior. This helps with features that need a second call object to work with. The phone attempts to initiate a new outgoing call on the same SIP

0 is the default value.

This was discussed already when using the community search => here <= 

If you need any additional help outside what a Polycom employee or community volunteers can offer a service ticket is needed.

In order to raise a support ticket you need to work with your Polycom reseller as they need to do this for you.

End Customers are unable to open a ticket directly with Polycom support.

As the unit is no longer within warranty please be prepared to Pay Per Incident / PPI. This is all outlined in detail here. Westcon-Comstor Americas sold this VVX410 back in 16/03/2015

Is there an option to change this parameter via 'web GUI?

or just via the cfg file?

[SteffenBaierUK · Accepted solution]

Hello @Matan,

No this needs to be either via configuration file from a provisioning server or Web UI

Oct 7, 2011 Question: Do I always need a Provisioning Server or can I configure a Phone via the Web Interface or via the Phone Gui?
Resolution: Please check => here <=

Mar 08, 2013 Question: Where can I download configuration files from or create these myself?

Resolution: Please check => here <=

Dec 10, 2018 Question: How can I prevent a Polycom phone selecting a 2nd line instead of making another call on the same line?

Resolution: Please check => here <=
