About Your 5230 IP Appliance

User Types

There are two basic user types:

Desk Phone user (stationary user): Has a dedicated phone at their desk. Calls to that user’s extension number always ring at that phone.

Hot Desk user (mobile user): Has a dedicated extension number, but no dedicated phone. When a Hot Desk user logs in a hot desk-enabled phone, all calls to that user ring at that phone, until the user logs out. In effect, that phone becomes the user’s phone, with all the user’s personal features enabled. See “Using a Hot Desk Phone” on page 14 for more information.

Both types of users can also be Guest Users on any 5230 IP Appliance other than their own, or on which they are not logged on. Guest users can only use the extension number and features programmed on the set they are using, and cannot change any of the phone’s settings (display language, etc.). Unless this set has their extension number as a line appearance, calls to guest users will not ring on this phone.

See “User Type Settings” on page 13 for information on setting your user type.
