Configuration changes can performed centrally at the boot server:
Call Forward
The phone provides a flexible call forwarding feature to forward calls to
another destination. Call forwarding can be applied in the following cases:
• Automatically to all calls
• Calls from a specific caller (extension)
• When the phone is busy
• When Do Not Disturb is active
• After an extended period of alerting
The user can elect to manually forward calls while they are in the alerting state
to a predefined or manually specified destination. The call forwarding feature
works in conjunction with the distinctive incoming call treatment feature
(refer to Distinctive Incoming Call Treatment on page 4-6 ). The user’s ability
to originate calls is unaffected by all call forwarding options. Each registration
has its own forwarding properties.
Server-based call forwarding is active if the feature is enabled on both the
phone and the server and the phone is registered. If server-based call
forwarding is enabled on any of the phone’s registrations, the other
registrations are not affected.
Server-based call forwarding will behave the same as per-SIP2.1 feature with
the following exceptions:
• There is no indication on the phone’s user interface whether or not
server-based call forwarding is active.
• If server-based call forwarding is enabled, but inactive, and the user
selects the call forward soft key, the “moving arrow” icon does not appear
on the user’s phone (incoming calls are not forwarded).
