In a SIP to ISDN call, in order for the IMG to play Call Progress Tones / Ring Back, the outgoing channel group pane must have the "Ingress Side will play Call Progress Tones" field set to True. In this state, the Call Progress Tones / Ring Back will be played unconditionally. Equally, if the "Ingress Side will play Call Progress Tones" field is set to False in the outgoing channel group, the Call Progress Tones / Ring Back will not be played.
Feature F-5025 adds more rules to when the Call Progress Tones / Ring Back will be played or when they will be suppressed. See the Call Flow Diagrams below which highlight the changes.
Feature F-16176 adds additional rule regarding when the Call Progress Tones / Ring Back is being stopped. See the Call Flow Diagrams below which highlight the changes.
This feature is supported from SIP to ISDN and from SIP to SS7.
