Active Call List
Current calls appear in the Active Call list. The Active Call list shows the caller ID (if
available), the call duration, the number the caller dialed, and the caller's name (if the
caller ID matches an entry in a directory or in MS Outlook). Caller ID (name and number)
can come from the PSTN on inbound calls. Also, the Active Call list shows the trunk
group name and port/channel.
