Yes. With Auto-Answer the agent uses a headset and the phone remains
OFF-HOOK at all times after logging in. You can physically leave the phone off hook or simply assign a headset feature button to the phone. Calls are then delivered to the agent with a preceeding ZIP tone and, optionally, a VDN VOA (Voice Origination Announcement). If the agent places the phone back on-hook they will be logged out (which you have already experienced).
If the agent uses "auto-in" then calls are delivered one right after another without agent intervention (recommended). If you assign a "manual-in" button to the phone then the agent will have to press the "manual-in" button when they are ready to take the next call.
