Enabling Bridged Extensions 95
If the primary phone enables Do Not Disturb, a call rings on a secondary
phone. If the primary phone user disables Do Not Disturb while the call is
ringing, the call does not start ringing on the primary. Do Not Disturb is
enabled only for subsequent calls. This is also true for a secondary phone
user who toggles the Do Not Disturb setting while a call is ringing.
If the primary phone enables Do Not Disturb and a call comes in from a
hunt group, the Do Not Disturb setting is ignored and the call rings on
the primary. If a secondary phone enables Do Not Disturb and a call
comes in from a hunt group to the primary phone, the call does not ring
on the secondary phone.
Hands Free and Bridged Line Calls
Enabling the Hands Free feature has the following effect on bridged calls:
■ If the primary phone has Hands Free enabled, a call rings briefly on the
secondary phone before it is automatically answered by the primary
phone.
■ If the secondary phone has Hands Free enabled, only calls made to the
secondary's phone extension are answered Hands Free. Calls to
primary phone are not answered Hands Free on the secondary phone;
they appear as normal bridge calls.
Call Forward, Forward to Voice Mail, and Bridged Line Calls
Enabling Call Forwarding and Forward to Voice Mail (or enabling both
features) has the following effect on bridged calls:
■ If the primary phone enables Forward to Voice Mail, calls ring once on
the primary and secondary phones, and then go to voicemail.
■ If the primary phone enables Call Forward Universal, calls to the
primary go to the Call Forward Universal destination immediately and
do not ring on the primary or secondary phones.
■ If a secondary phone enables Forward to Voice Mail or Call Forwarding
to another extension, these settings affect only calls to the secondary
phone extension. A bridged call rings on both the primary phone and
secondary phone.
■ If a call is ringing on the primary phone and the secondary phone, and
the primary phone user presses the Forward to Voicemail button, the
call is forwarded to primary phone’s voice mailbox and the secondary
phone stops ringing.
