Managing Outside Lines
This section provides feature information for managing outside lines. It describes 
two types of networks and includes ways to control outside line access, ways to 
view outside line calling information, and ways to record outside-call information. 
Controlling Access to Outside Lines
You can control system users’ access to 6 (basic console) or 12 (enhanced

automatically redirect to you.
