Setting up call forwarding 
7
As the administrator, you can administer system-wide call-forwarding parameters 
to control when calls are forwarded. Use the System Parameters Call 
Coverage/Call Forwarding screen to set the number of times an extension rings 
before the system redirects the call because the user did not answer (CFWD No 
Answer Interval). For example, if you want calls to ring 4 times at an extension 
and, if the call is not answered, redirect to the forwarding number, set this 
parameter to 4.
You also can use the System Parameters Call Coverage/Call Forwarding screen to 
determine whether the forwarded-to phone can override call forwarding to allow 
calls to the forwarded-from phone (Call Forward Override). For example, if an 
executive forwards incoming calls to an attendant and the attendant needs to call 
the executive, the call can be made only if the Call Forwarding Override is set to 
yes.
Instructions
To determine which extensions have call forwarding activated:
1. Type 
list call-forwarding
 and press 
RETURN
.
This command lists all the extensions that are forwarded along with each 
forwarding number.
NOTE:
If you have a V1, V2, or V3 system, you can see if a specific 
extension is forwarded only by typing 
status station nnnn
, where 
nnnn is the specific extension.
