Configuring Privacy and Security Features

You can also configure these features using your PC and the IP Phone Web
Interface. See

“Blocking Caller ID,” on page 70

and the

“Blocking Anonymous

Calls,” on page 70

.

NOTE

For the SPA501G, configure these features using the IP Phone Web Interface or use
the star codes (described below).

Blocking Caller ID

You can block Caller ID from your phone so that your phone number will not
appear to the person you call.

Using the Setup button:

STEP 1

Press the Setup button.

STEP 2

Select Preferences.

STEP 3

Choose Block Caller ID and press edit.

STEP 4

Press y/n to choose yes.

STEP 5

Press ok.

STEP 6

Press save.

Using the star code:

Press *67 before dialing the number. (Caller ID blocking will remain enabled until
you enter *68.)

Blocking Anonymous Calls

Blocking anonymous calls prevents calls with unknown Caller ID from ringing your
phone. (For example, if a caller set his phone to not display Caller ID, the call is
considered anonymous.) These callers receive a busy signal or message.
