Forward Unconditional - Avaya IP Office M7208 User Manual

11.2.1 Forward Unconditional

Forward unconditional is used to immediately redirect your calls.
· By default this function is only applied to incoming external calls to you. However, if required internal calls and or
group calls can also be selected.
· When enabled, all calls matching the settings are forwarded to the number set as the forward unconditional
destination. That number can be internal or external.
· You can still use the phone to make outgoing calls. When you go off-hook you will hear broken dial tone.
· The forward on busy and forward on no answer options both use the same separate destination number. However
if that number has not been set, they use the same destination as set for forward unconditional.
· If you have voicemail on, the telephone system will attempt to redirect forwarded calls to voicemail if they are still
unanswered after having rung for your no answer time (default 15 seconds). This is not always possible for calls
that have been forwarded to an external number.
