With the Forwarding feature, you can have calls follow you (e.g., forwarded to a cell
phone), or you can redirect calls to a voice mail or other extension. For greater flexi-
bility with status changes and call forwarding, use the composite status (see
page 96 )
and call routing features (see page 117 ) provided in Unified Communicator instead of
DND and device forwarding.
NOTE: The Fwd button is also used to insert a space when you are using the dialpad
to input letters or numbers.

ber. You can even forward calls to outside numbers, if your endpoint is programmed
