Understanding Call Handling Modes
You can set five distinct call handling modes for your extension. These call handling modes can be
configured with “Do Not Disturb” options to forward incoming calls to another number or send them to
voicemail. Using the voicemail system, you can also record a different personal greeting for each call
handling mode.
With your phone, you can configure options for each call handling mode, such as call forwarding
destinations, number of rings, and simultaneous ring. (You can also configure these options in
ShoreTel Communicator.)
