Description
The facility to be used to route the call to a direct dial set that you
define with an external number.
Note: If you choose Use prime line, ensure that prime line is not
assigned to the intercom buttons for your telephones. When
prime line is assigned as an intercom button, it chooses the first
available line pool assigned to the telephone to make a call. If
this line pool does not have the correct lines for routing the call,
the direct dial call will fail. Refer to "Line Access tab" in the
Device Configuration Guide (NN40020-300).
