Call Forwarding

The call forwarding feature on the IP phone allows incoming calls to be forwarded to another destination. The phone sends the SIP message to the SIP proxy, which then forwards the call to the assigned destination.

Call forwarding is disabled by default. You can enable call forwarding on a global or per-line basis. If you have configured call forwarding on an individual line, then the settings for this line are used; otherwise, the global call forward settings are used.

You can have up to 9 lines on the 480i configured for call forwarding.

The following are the call forward modes you can configure for call

forwarding:
