Creating and Managing Bridged Extensions

When you define bridged extension appearances on a primary telephone:
■
Incoming calls appear on the bridged extension buttons first, followed
by the buttons (if any) associated with the primary telephone’s
extension. For example, by default, buttons 1, 2, and 3 are extension
appearances of the primary telephone. If you define buttons 4, 5, 6,
and 7 as bridged extensions on the primary telephone, incoming calls
appear on primary telephone buttons in the order 4, 5, 6, 7, 1, 2, 3.

Any bridged extension appearance that overlaps one of the defined
extension appearances for the primary telephone (by default, buttons
1, 2, and 3 on an NBX Business Telephone) take precedence over
those extension appearances. For example, if you define buttons 3, 4,
5, 6, and 7 as bridged extension appearances on the primary
telephone, incoming calls appear on primary telephone buttons in the
order 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 1, 2.
