4.5 Follow-Me-Anywhere
Calls can be forwarded to other phones outside of the Allworx System such as cell or home phones. If the
recipient does not answer the call, it will be directed back to the system in order to follow the rest of the
configured call route. In following the rest of the call route, unanswered Follow Me calls may eventually be
directed to the Finally route which permits callers to leave messages in the default voicemail inbox. If
having callers leave messages on the personal phone’s voicemail is preferred, do not use the Follow Me
features. Instead, use the Finally route to direct calls to the cell or home phone by entering the phone
number into the Dial number text box.
Note: When an outside phone answers the call, the default is for the recipient will hear a prompt
requesting that a 1 be entered to accept the call. However, User extensions can be configured so
that Follow Me calls to their extensions require a Message Center password in order to accept the
call. See the System Administrator for more information.
