Notes:
Every answer DN you assign to a telephone automatically designates an appearance on the answer telephone
beside a button with an indicator, if one is available. Answer DNs overwrite feature assignments to buttons with
indicators. They do not overwrite line, Hunt group, intercom, or handsfree assignments.
