Cnfernece features - more than 3 parties on a Polycom IP7000 and Mitel 3300 1

[Rixy]

Hi all,

I've generally been able to assist customers getting local 3 way conferencing working on Polycom conference phones hanging off off the 3300 as Generic SIP phones. However, i have been asked if there is anyway of increasing the number of parties. Now i am aware that when configuring these types of phones, you normally specify in the SIP Device Capabilities form that "Replace System based with Device based In-Call Features" option is set to "Yes". Has anyone managed or attempted to connect more than 3 parties to one of these phones using the call managers resources?

Polycom have a very helpful article that basically puts this on the call manager side, which i don't disagree with. But i can;t for the life of me work out how to get dial tone after the 3rd party has been added on the local device.

any idea's help would be greatly received.
