Account Configuration (DND and Call Forwarding)

The 6757i has a feature that allows you to configure “Do Not Disturb” (DND) and “call forwarding” (CFWD) for multiple accounts on the phone. You can set specific modes for the way you want the phone to handle DND and CFWD. The three modes you can set on the phone for these features are:

"Do Not Disturb" (DND) is a feature on the phone that prevents the phone from ringing and receiving incoming calls. When DND is enabled with "call forwarding" (CFWD), any incoming calls can be call forwarded to voicemail or another number. See "“Call Forward Account-Based Configuration”" on page 193 for more information about call forwarding to other numbers.

On the 6757i, you can set DND on the phone-side for a specific account or for all accounts on the phone. You can set three modes for DND using the Aastra Web UI at the path, Basic Settings->Preferences->General->DND Key Mode: Account, Phone (default), and Custom. DND performs according to the mode you set.

You can then configure a DND key (for the phone or for an expansion module) using the Aastra Web UI at the path, Operation->Softkeys Keys and XML. You can enable and disable DND by toggling the key, or by setting DND for a specific account at the path, Basic Settings->Account Configuration. Once you enable DND, "DND" displays on the LCD for the applicable account.
