Programmable Softkey (PSK) Toggling
You can now configure PSKs to toggle, or switch between two PSK actions. This is
useful when you want a user to be able to switch between two star code actions
that have been defined for a PSK. For example, a PSK could be configured to
toggle between turning call forwarding on and off using the “call forwarding on”
star code (*72) and the “call forwarding off” star code (*73).
To configure this type of PSK, enter the following into the “PSK name” field in the
Voice > Phone tab in the management interface:
fnc=sd;ext=starcode@$PROXY;nme=name;ext2=starcode@PROXY;
nme2=name2
where fnc=sd is the function of the key (speed dial), starcode is the star code
action to perform, name is the name of the first action, ext2 is the second star
code action to perform, and name2 is the name of the second action to perform.
See the Cisco SPA500 Series, SPA300 Series, and WIP310 IP Phone
Administration Guide for more information.
Physical Hold Button and PSK Linking
You can now configure the physical hold button on the phone to perform a star
code action that has been configured as a PSK. For example, with some call
control systems, putting a call on hold or resuming a held call requires the phone to
send a star code to the server. With those systems, the physical hold button on the
phone cannot be used to put a call on hold or resume a held call, because a star
code is not sent to the server.
With this new change, you can configure a PSK to perform a call hold/resume
action, then configure the physical hold button on the phone to perform that action
when pressed. This is done by adding the holdkey=yes parameter to the softkey.

Administration Guide for more information.
