• Phone
The Phone mode allows you to set the same CFWD configuration for all accounts (All,
Busy, and/or No Answer). When you configure the initial account, the phone applies
the configuration to all other accounts. (In the Mitel Web UI, only the account you
configured is enabled. All other accounts are grayed out but set to the same configu-
ration.) Using the Mitel Web UI, if you make changes to that initial account, the changes
apply to all accounts on the phone.
• Custom
The Custom mode allows you to configure CFWD for a specific account or all accounts.
You can configure a specific state (All, Busy, and/or No Answer) for each account
independently or all accounts. You can set all accounts to ALL On or ALL Off.

LINK LAYER DISCOVERY PROTOCOL FOR MEDIA ENDPOINT DE-
VICES (LLDP-MED) AND EMERGENCY LOCATION IDENTIFICATION
NUMBER (ELIN)
The IP Phones support Link Layer Discovery Protocol for Media Endpoint Devices (LLDP-MED).
LLDP-MED is designed to allow for things such as:
• Auto-discovery of LAN policies (such as VLAN, Layer 2 Priority and Diffserv settings) leading
to "plug and play" networking.
• Extended and automated power management of Power over Ethernet endpoints.
• Inventory management, allowing network administrators to track their network devices, and
determine their characteristics (manufacturer, software and hardware versions, serial /
asset number).
On the IP Phones, LLDP-MED performs the following:
• Supports the MAC/PHY configuration (e.g. speed rate/duplex mode).
• Supports VLAN info from the network policy; this takes precedence over manual settings.
• Allows you to enable/disable LLDP-MED if required.
