Silent Alert
The silent alarm function can trigger an instant, unobtrusive action by the destination on the specified URL (example: alarm server). This action might be necessary if, for example, the call recipient is threatened, the tone of the conversation becomes angry, or there is a medical emergency or a hostage situation.
