the Cisco CallManager directory.

the corporate directory (which includes users in the Cisco CallManager directory).
Disallow Calls from Unknown
Phones

Enforce Authentication by PIN
from Personal Destinations
Check this check box for Personal Assistant to enforce PIN authentication when users call
from any phone except their work phone as listed in the corporate directory.
Note that if you set this feature, and if a user configures the setting to bypass PIN
authentication from personal destinations, Personal Assistant ignores the user setting.
Uncheck this check box for Personal Assistant to use the setting the user configured.
Use Cisco Unity Phone
Password for the
Personal Assistant PIN
(for systems with Cisco Unity
only)

password as the Personal Assistant PIN.
Uncheck this check box for Personal Assistant to use the Cisco CallManager PIN instead.
Apply Rules Only to Calls to
Corporate Destinations

Uncheck this check box for Personal Assistant to apply active call-forwarding rules to calls
to destinations listed in the corporate directory and to calls to user-defined personal
destinations.
Record and Play Name of
Unknown Caller
Specify when Personal Assistant should prompt an unknown caller to record a name and then
play it for a user whose active rule includes call screening. (A caller is considered unknown
when caller ID is unavailable.)
Select from the following options:
• Only When Caller ID Is Not Available—Personal Assistant always records and plays the
caller name when the user phone system does not have Caller ID and the active rule
includes call screening.
• Always—Personal Assistant always records and plays the caller name when the active
rule includes call screening.
• Never—Personal Assistant does not record and play the caller name when the active rule
includes call screening, whether or not Caller ID is available.
Allow Direct Transfer to Voice
Mail
Check this check box for Personal Assistant to allow a caller to transfer to voice mail after
the call is not picked up at the first user destination.
