Creating Speed Dials
You can configure different types of speed dials:
• Depending on the phone model and how your extensions are configured,
you can assign unused line buttons on your phone or attendant console to
act as speed dials.
• You can create speed dials assigned to a number, that, when pressed on
the keypad, dials the number assigned to it. Each speed dial can be a phone
number, IP address or URL.
