When the Cisco IP Phone works with the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express (Unified CME),
the phones must go into CME mode.
When a user invokes the conference feature, the tag allows the phone to use either a local or network hardware
conference bridge.
The Cisco IP Phones do not support the following actions:
• Transfer—Only supported in the connected call transfer scenario.
• Conference—Only supported in the connected call transfer scenario.
• Join—Supported using the Conference button or hookflash access.
• Hold—Supported using the Hold button.
• Barge and Merge—Not supported.
• Direct Transfer—Not supported.

The users cannot create conference and transfer calls across different lines.
Unified CME supports intercom calls, also known as whisper paging. But the page is rejected by the phone
during calls.
