Network Mailb.

Using the network mailbox

Some fixed network providers and VoIP providers offer answering machines on the network – network mailboxes.

You can use the relevant network mailbox if you have requested it from your fixed network or VoIP provider.

The network mailbox only answers incoming calls made via the relevant line (fixed network or VoIP). To record all calls, you should therefore set up network mailboxes for both fixed network and VoIP.

Please note:

You can only set up fast access to one of the network mailboxes.

You can assign speed dial numbers to the number for another2network mailbox in the

directory (e.g. the key) (page 30). You must assign the speed dial numbers to every handset that is registered.

Configuring the network mailbox for fast access

With fast access you can dial a network mailbox directly.

The network mailbox is preconfigured for fast access. You only need to enter the number of a network mailbox.

The number is dialled via the default con- nection.

Tip: A fixed network answer machine should always be controlled via the fixed network connection. If VoIP is set as the default connection on your phone, add a star (*) to the end of the number of the network mailbox. The connection is then established via the fixed network.

Please note:

If you have set an automatic area code

(page 87), the area code is also prefixed to the number of the network answer machine if it does not start with 0 and is dialled via VoIP.

If the phone number for your network provider does not begin with 0, ask your VoIP provider. A network mailbox can frequently be accessed via an alternative phone number (with dialling code) too.

Viewing the network mailbox report

When a message is recorded, you receive a call from the network mailbox. If you have requested Calling Line Identification, the display shows the network mailbox number.

If you take the call, the new messages are played back.

If you do not take the call, the network mailbox number will be saved in the missed calls list and the message key flashes (page 33).
