All these features can be password-protected to avoid unauthorized access.
TalkSwitch also provides the option of ringing specific extensions or ring
groups prior to the engagement of an auto attendant. For details about
configuring auto attendants, see 2.4.2 Auto attendant on page 80.
3.1.2 Receiving calls without the auto attendant
If you do not use the auto attendant to answer calls, please note that the
call cascade options for the local extensions are not engaged. For calls to go
to an extension’s mailbox, the call must be transferred manually by someone
in the office. Once calls have been answered at a local extension, they can
be transferred to any extension or voice mailbox.

3.2.1 Making calls from a local extension without direct line access
Place intercom calls from one local extension to another local
extension, remote extension or extension ring group
You can place intercom calls from one local extension to another local,
remote or VoIP extension or to a ring group.
1. Pick up your extension’s handset.
2. Dial the number of the extension you want to intercom to. An intercom
call is identified by two short rings.
If you are using an IP phone, see 3.3 In the Office — Making and receiving
calls using an IP phone on page 126 and following pages. The difference
between a regular and an IP phone is the size of the jack. Regular phones
use regular, RJ-11 phone cables. IP phones take RJ-45 (Cat 5) cables for
networking.
