4 Features and Applications 4
This chapter offers descriptions of system features and applications that are
available to help enhance your system. System features make it possible to
customize the system to overall business needs, to the requirements of groups
within your organization, and to the day-to-day job functions of individuals.
Applications provide special functions for specific business needs and work hand-

NOTE:
Release 6.0 and later systems (Hybrid/PBX mode only) support private
connections between MERLIN LEGEND Communications Systems and
DEFINITY Enterprise Communications Server (ECS) or DEFINITY
