Ring Settings Configuration on SPA112 and SPA122

Objective

The ring set up configuration on the SPA100 series analog telephone adapter assigns specific ring patterns to call waiting, incoming calls, call backs, and hold reminders. Furthermore, the ring setup enhances the voice services of the device on the provided phone ports by assigning specific ring tones to the respective voice service in use. The voice services include voicemail or voice messages. This article explains the configuration of the ring settings on a SPA112 or a SPA122.
