extension, input a guest name after check-in, or change a call-coverage path. For
example, hotel may check in airline personnel before their arrival to guarantee
their reservation. However, hotel personnel may be unaware of the guests’ names
and so wait until their arrival to update the names.

Arrangements can be for voice mail, text messages, any available coverage point,
or no coverage at all.
Administer call-coverage paths on the switch, and use the associated path
numbers to establish coverage arrangements at check-in. For suites, administer
paths to allow one room in the suite to be the coverage point for the other. To make
customized arrangements at time of check-in (such as coverage from one guest
room to another), manually administer the path attributes at the switch.
