Chapter 5 Moving Calls
Forwarding
Forwarding automatically redirects your incoming calls to another 
extension or an outside number, referred to as a forwarding target. The 
communications server provides two types of forwarding: fixed and 
variable.
Fixed Forwarding
Fixed Forwarding forwards calls to as many as two different 
extensions set up at the communications server. Fixed Forwarding is 
often used to forward unanswered calls to the PhoneMail system or to 
your company’s message center.
Your communications server system administrator can select the 
following conditions under which calls will be forwarded:
when your extension is busy
when your extension rings, but no one answers (for a period of time 
specified at the communications server)
when your extension is in Do Not Disturb mode
under any combination of the conditions mentioned above
forward all calls
Your system administrator can also specify that your incoming calls 
from outside numbers be forwarded to one extension and those from 
extensions to another. You can cancel Fixed Forwarding to prevent 
incoming calls from being forwarded, although this is rarely necessary.
