USING DO-NOT-DISTURB

Use DND to temporarily stop calls from coming to your extension.
Note: If your phone is set for Call Forwarding-No Answer or Busy (such as to
voice mail), only calls from other extensions will be blocked. External calls will still
ring through to your extension before being forwarded to voice mail. Permanent call
forwarding is determined through system programming.
