Phone and System Administration

Swapping Phone Extension Numbers

A phone extension number can be reassigned to (swapped with) another phone. To swap extensions, the two affected phones must meet the following criteria:

Both phones (and the administrator phone) must reside on the same node.

Both phones must be the same type. For example, if you are swapping a Mitel 8662 ITP Mode phone extension number with another system extension number, the other extension number must be assigned to another ITP Mode Mitel 8662. This applies to all device types.

Neither device can be the administrator phone performing the swap.

Neither device can be in an active Hot Desk session.
