198 Chapter 24 Feature configuration: Answering calls

External callers are transferred to the Prime set used in your system, or to your voice mail. Forward on Busy takes priority over DND on Busy. If an external call uses a target line, the call is processed according to the programming of the target line. If the target line is busy, the caller hears a busy tone, or the call is routed to the Prime set for the target line or to the voice mail system, even if DND on Busy is programmed.

Blocking user access

Turn Privacy on or off

When you have lines assigned to more than one telephone, anyone with the line appearance can answer a call, or join a call in progress. To provide exclusive access for a user, you can program privacy on a line, in which case, only one person at a time can use the line. (This does not apply to target lines.)
