Note
If you assign your extension to a phone that is normally occupied by another user, calls to the
original user's extension are forwarded to the destination that user has defined for the active
availability state.

Paging

If your phone and other phones at your site are configured for paging, you can speak a message to be
heard on a connected speaker, usually overhead. To use the paging function, your ShoreTel Connect
administrator must give you access.
To send a page:
1. Dial the number your ShoreTel Connect administrator provided and wait for the confirmation tone,
and then begin speaking into the handset.
2. Hang up when you are finished.
Note
If you hear an error tone when you try to page, paging might not be configured at your site or you
might not have the necessary permissions to use paging. Contact your ShoreTel Connect
administrator for assistance.
