Understanding Availability States
You can set six distinct availability states for your extension. These availability states can be
configured with various 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 availability
state.
By using your phone’s interface, you can configure options for each availability state, such as call
forwarding destinations, number of rings, and simultaneous ring. (You can also configure these options
in the ShoreTel Connect client.)
