In a networked system, Line redirection allows you to redirect
calls coming in on your external lines to a telephone outside the
office. You can redirect exchange lines to AC15A private circuits,
AC15A private circuits to either exchange lines or private
circuits, and exchange lines to exchange lines.
Compact Plus supports simultaneous redirection of DIA calls,
subject to the same barring rules and depending on the
availability of outgoing resources.
You may choose to redirect all your exchange lines or only some
of them. The incoming trunk must have disconnect supervision
and the outgoing trunk must be answer supervised for Line
Redirection to perform properly.
You cannot use the Line redirection feature code at
M7100N/T7100 and M7000/T7000 telephones, or a telephone
connected to an Analogue Terminal Adapter.
You redirect lines at a telephone, but once redirected, the lines are
redirected for the entire system. You can only redirect lines for
which there are line keys on the telephone you are using.
Call Forward forwards all calls that arrive at a particular
telephone to another telephone within the Compact Plus system.
Line redirection redirects only the lines you specify, no matter
which telephones they appear on, to a telephone outside the
Compact Plus system. Line redirection takes precedence over
Call Forward.
You redirect lines at a telephone, but once redirected, the lines are
redirected for the entire system.
You can only redirect lines that appear at line keys on your
telephone.
When redirecting DIA lines, ensure the outgoing resource is a
line pool with sufficient lines to support redirected traffic. The
number of appearances for a DIA line is not limited to the number
of appearances on that extension. As many DIA calls are
redirected as the outgoing resource permits.
