182 CHAPTER 6: CONFIGURING TELEPHONE FEATURES FOR A USER
Bridge permissions can be configured, by a user, through the VCX User
web interface or, by the administrator, through the VCX Administration
web interface. If bridge permissions are configured for an extension
through the Administration interface, the Bridge Permissions tab in the
VCX User interface for that extension has preassigned values. However,
the user assigned that extension can delete a administrator-assigned
bridge permission or assign others.
Bridging is not supported on Basic phones (Models 2101 or 3101).
For more information on how bridge permissions work and feature
interaction, see the VCX Telephone Guide.
