Customizing Rings and Message Indicators
You can customize the way Cisco IP Communicator indicates the presence of an
incoming call or a new voice mail message for each of your lines. Customized ring
sounds and other indicators can help you quickly differentiate between multiple
lines. For example, you can choose a chirping sound to indicate an incoming call
on Line 1 and a drumbeat to indicate an incoming call on Line 2.
The options in the User Options web pages might vary. If you cannot locate a
specific option, contact your system administrator.
