Tips

•Enter the call forward target number exactly as you would dial it from your phone. For example, enter an access code or the area code, if necessary.

•You can forward your calls to a traditional analog phone or to another IP phone, although your system administrator might restrict the call forwarding feature to numbers within your company.

•Call forwarding is phone line specific. If a call reaches you on a line where call forwarding is not enabled, the call will ring as usual.

•Your system administrator can change call forwarding conditions for your phone lines.

Making Conference Calls

Your Cisco Unified IP Phone allows you to combine three or more separate calls into one conversation, creating a conference call.

Understanding Types of Conference Calls

There are two types of conference calls: Standard and Meet-Me.

Standard Conference Calls

You can create a standard conference in different ways, depending on your needs and the softkeys available on your phone:

•Confrn—Use this softkey to establish a standard conference by calling each participant. Standard conference calling is a default feature available on most phones.

•Join—Use this softkey to establish a standard conference by joining several calls already on one line.

•cBarge—Use this softkey to add yourself to an existing call on a shared line and to turn the call into a standard conference call. This feature is available only on phones that use shared lines.
