Call Forwarding
The call forwarding feature on the 
IP phone allows incoming calls to 
be forwarded to another 
destination. The phone sends the 
SIP message to the SIP proxy, 
which then forwards the call to the 
assigned destination.
Call forwarding is disabled by 
default. Your system administrator 
can enable call forwarding on a 
phone-wide basis or on multi-line 
phones on a per-line basis. If you 
have configured call forwarding on 
an individual line, then the settings 
for this line are used; otherwise, 
the phone-wide call forward 
settings are used. You can have up 
to 9 lines on the 480i configured for 
call forwarding.
The following are the call forward 
modes you can configure for call 
forwarding:
