Forced Authorization Code

Your administrator may require that you enter a Forced Authorization Code (FACC) after you dial a phone
number. The FAC controls access to phone numbers. For more information, contact your system administrator.
When you need to enter an FAC, the phone displays Enter Authorization Code, the dialed number
changes to "********", and you hear a special tone. Enter the FAC for the call using the keypad. For security
reasons, the phone displays a "*" instead of the number entered.

Secure and Nonsecure Indication Tones
When a phone is configured as secure (encrypted and trusted), it can be given a "protected" status. After a
phone is protected, it can be configured to play an indication tone at the beginning of a call.
You will hear these secure or nonsecure indication tones only on protected phones. If the overall call status
changes during the call, the protected phone plays the appropriate tone.
When the Play Secure Indication Tone option is enabled (True), the following circumstances determine the
type of tone the protected phone plays:
• If end-to-end secure media is established and the call status is secure, the phone plays the secure indication
• If end-to-end nonsecure media is established and the call status is not secure, the phone plays the nonsecure
• When the Play Secure Indication Tone option is disabled, no tone plays.
For more information, contact your system administrator.
Shared Lines
Shared lines allow you to use one phone number for multiple phones.
The Cisco IP Phone 7811 does not have a line button.
Note
You might have a shared line if you have multiple phones and want one phone number, if you share
call-handling tasks with coworkers, or if you handle calls on behalf of a manager.
For example, if you share a line with a coworker:
• When a call comes in on the shared line:
• If you answer the call:
tone (three long beeps with pauses)
indication tone (six short beeps with brief pauses)
• Your phone rings and the line button flashes amber.
• Your coworker's phone rings and the line button flashes amber.
