Hot Desking IP telephone configurations

You can transfer your IP telephony configuration temporarily from one IP telephone to another
using the Hot Desking feature. This feature is described in detail in the Telephony Features
Handbook. You use FEATURE *999 to enter the feature. To perform Hot Desking, you are
prompted for a password, which is specified at the telephone, before you can complete the task.

Notes about Hot Desking

• The Hot Desking feature allows a user to divert calls and signals from one IP telephone to
another. For example, if a user is temporarily working in another office, they can retain their
telephone number by hot desking their usual telephone to the IP telephone in their temporary
office.
• The hot desking code defaults to the first item on the services list.
• Once hot desking occurs between two IP telephones, no activity is allowed on the originating
telephone, except to cancel hot desking. The display on the originating telephone indicates
where it has been diverted.
• Call forwarding to voicemail continues as normal. voicemail can be accessed from the
diverted IP telephone, as if it were the originating telephone.
• Using headsets with hot desking: If you use the headset feature on your IP telephone, and you
want to hot desk your telephone to another IP telephone, ensure that the target telephone also a
headset installed before you enter the hot desking feature.
• If the target telephone does not have a headset, the headset feature from the first telephone
does not transfer during hot desking. Adding a headset to the target telephone after hot desking
is enabled does not correct the situation. To enable headset function in this situation, you need
to cancel hot desking, plug a headset into the target telephone, and then re-establish hot
desking.
