Appendix: Using Alternate Extensions and MWIs

Alternate Extensions

Cisco Unity Connection Administration will not accept an extension that is already assigned to another user (either as a primary or alternate extension), or to a public distribution list, call handler, directory handler, or interview handler. Cisco Unity Connection verifies that each alternate extension is unique—up to the dialing domain level, if applicable—before allowing either an administrator or a user to create it.

All alternate extensions use the same transfer settings as the primary extension.

In many cases, Cisco Unity Connection can activate a message waiting indicator (MWI) for an alternate extension. However, depending on the phones and phone systems involved, some additional phone system programming may be required to set this up.
