VMI ports use switchhook flashes for Hold, Transfer, Conference, and Drop in the same way single-line telephones do. VMI ports also have the ability to perform transfer redirection, to respond to far-end disconnect, and, in the case of integrated VMI ports only, to send call information and mark a port in or out of service. The following sections describe these capabilities. Both integrated and generic VMI ports can perform trunk-to-trunk transfer.
