Accepting a call in Permanent Mode
If your contact center administrator has configured Forced Answer, you do not need to
take any specific action to answer calls in Permanent Connection mode. Customer calls
automatically connect to your telephone on the nailed-up connection. Offsite Agent
plays a tone to alert you to the incoming call before it activates the speechpath. Agent
Desktop automatically updates the call status.
