Understanding Feature Operation and Availability
The operation of your Cisco Unified IP Phone and the features available to you may vary, depending
on the call processing agent used by your company and also on how your company’s phone support
team has configured your phone system. Therefore, some of the features included in this Phone Guide
might not be available to you or might work differently on your phone system. Contact your support
desk or system administrator if you have questions about feature operation or availability.
