Tips

If the phone that shares your line has Privacy enabled, you can make and receive calls using the shared line as usual.

The Privacy feature applies to all shared lines on your phone. Consequently, if you have multiple shared lines and Privacy is enabled, coworkers cannot view or barge calls on any of your shared lines.

Using BLF to Determine a Line State

Busy Lamp Field (BLF) features allow you to view the state of a phone line that is associated with a speed dial, call log, or directory listing on your phone. If you use BLF Pickup, you can answer a ringing call for the line that you are monitoring. Your system administrator determines which BLF features are configured for your phone.
