mean a phone extension external to the VCX network (for
example, the PSTN).
6Check the box preceding the phone extensions you want to designate as
secondary phones. You are granting permission for these phones to
answer calls to the primary phone. You can select a maximum of four
secondary phones.
The bridged phone can identify up to four phone numbers to bridge
with, but the number of extensions it can actually bridge is determined by
the maximum number of contacts that set up for the phone, which may
be less than four. The Maximum Number Contacts value is specified when
you configure a phone for a user on the Add Phone page (see Figure 28).
7Optionally, you can enable MWI (Message Waiting Indicator) on the
secondary phone by entering a check mark in the MWI column. When
checked, the following features are enabled on the secondary phone:
■The MWI light on the secondary phone will light when a caller
leaves a message at the primary phone and the display panel on
the secondary phone shows the number of new and old messages
in the voice mailboxes of both the secondary phone and the
primary phone.
■Pressing the MSG button on the secondary phone lists both
mailboxes and allows the secondary user to access the voice
mailbox of the primary user. Note that the secondary user can
access the primary user’s voice mailbox even if the primary user is
logged off or the primary phone extension has been disabled.
