Configure the call park orbit ranges in the orbit table

Use Lync Server Control Panel or Lync Server Management Shell cmdlet New-CSCallParkOrbit to create the orbit ranges in the call park orbit table and associate them with the Application service that hosts the Call Park application.

Note:
For seamless integration with existing dial plans, orbit ranges are typically configured as a block of virtual extensions. Assigning Direct Inward Dialing (DID) numbers as orbit numbers in the call park orbit table is not supported.

Configure Call Park settings

• Use the Lync Server Management Shell cmdlet Set-CsCpsConfiguration to configure Call Park settings. At a minimum, we recommend that you configure the OnTimeoutURI option to configure the fallback destination to use when a parked call times out. You can also configure the following settings:
  
  
  • (Optional) EnableMusicOnHold to enable or disable music on hold.
    
    
  • (Optional) MaxCallPickupAttempts to determine the number of times a parked call rings back to the answering phone before forwarding the call to the fallback Uniform Resource Identifier (URI).
    
    
  • (Optional) CallPickupTimeoutThreshold to determine the amount of time that elapses after a call has been parked before it rings back to the phone where the call was answered.
    
    
• (Optional) Use the Lync Server Management Shell cmdlet Set-CsCallParkServiceMusicOnHoldFile to customize and upload an audio file, if not using default music on hold.

Configure voice policy to enable Call Park for users

Use Lync Server Control Panel or Lync Server Management Shell cmdlet Set-CSVoicePolicy with the EnableCallPark option to enable Call Park for users in voice policy.

Note:
By default, Call Park is disabled for all users.

Note:
If you have multiple voice policies, make sure the EnableCallPark property is set for each voice policy, not just for the default policy.

Verify normalization rules for Call Park

Call park orbits must not be normalized. Verify that your normalization rules do not include any of your orbit ranges. If necessary, create additional normalization rules to prevent orbits being normalized.
