User Authentication Control
Your administrator can configure if you require authentication to access phone menus. Your administrator
can also customize and turn off the authentication to allow access to all phone menus.
With this feature, whether any phone menu needs authentication is controlled by your administrator. If your
administrator configures authentication to access the menu, you need to provide the password and sign in to
access the menu.
