13.3.3Call Forwarding

You can set the ZyXEL Device to forward calls to a specific extension number, either unconditionally (always), when your number is busy, or when you do not answer.

When you hear the dial tone, dial “*01” followed by the number to which you want the call to be forwarded. When you do not need the follow me function, dial “#01” to cancel this rule.
