Haven't Setup Shared Parking Yet?
If you have not setup the use of the original 10 shared parking spots, please see our How to Use Shared Parking article.
Default Settings
By default, the bvoip phone system has 10 shared parking spaces available that is used in order to have multiple lines to work as a call waiting sort of feature. However, if you are needing to add more shared parking spaces, you can setup more in the phone system.
