Join Call allows both parties of the call to hear User joining the call.Click the Join Call button on the Audio Monitoring pop up window.WhisperThe whisper feature allows the whisperer to speak only to the Agent (on net User). The Caller (off net caller) is not able to hear the whisperer.Press the Whisper to button on the Audio Monitor pop upNote: The whisper option is only available on Calls where one party is an on net User and the other party is an off net User. This can be either an Inbound or outbound call.Listen OnlyThe Listen Only feature allows the listener to hear both sides of a call, but not be heard by either of the other parties. By default, the Listen Only is selected when a connection is made, so both the Agent (on net User) and Caller (off net caller) will be unaware of the listener.Click the Listen Only button on the Audio Monitoring pop up. Your connection state will be changed to Listen Only and neither of the parties will hear you further.
