Forwarding Calls to Another Number
You can use the call forwarding features to redirect incoming calls from your phone to another
number.
Your system administrator might allow you to choose from two types of call forwarding features:
Unconditional call forwarding (Call Forward All)—Applies to all calls that you receive.
Conditional call forwarding (Call Forward No Answer, Call Forward Busy, Call Forward No
Coverage)—Applies to certain calls that you receive, according to conditions.
You can access Call Forward All on your phone or from your User Options web pages; conditional
call forwarding features are accessible only from your User Options web pages. Your system
administrator determines which call forwarding features are available to you.
Tips
Enter the call forward target number exactly as you would dial it from your phone. For example,
enter an access code or the area code, if necessary.
You can forward your calls to a traditional analog phone or to another IP phone, although your
system administrator might restrict the call forwarding feature to numbers within your company.
Call forwarding is phone line specific. If a call reaches you on a line where call forwarding is not
enabled, the call will ring as usual.
