Call Permissions

Your administrator establishes Call Permissions to control the types of

 

calls that can be dialed from your telephone. The administrator can

 

configure these permissions to change depending on the time of day. For

 

example, your administrator can prevent long-distance calls from being

 

dialed from your telephone outside of business hours.

 

To view your current call permissions, log in to NBX NetSet > User

 

Information > Call Permissions.

 

 

Class of Service

The Class of Service Override feature allows you to apply the features

Override

of your own 3Com Telephone temporarily to another 3Com Telephone

 

on the same local network.

Example:

The telephone in your organization’s conference room is configured so that long-distance telephone calls cannot be dialed from it. You may, however, need to place a long-distance call during a meeting. Using the Class of Service Override feature, you can apply the features of your own telephone to the conference room telephone for one call only and dial the call, assuming that your Call Permissions allow you to make long-distance calls from your own telephone.

If your system uses a messaging application other than NBX Messaging, use the documentation for your messaging application instead of these instructions.
