Updating Your Status
You can update your status on your phone to allow people to monitor your status from their phones.
When you update your status on your phone, your new status is visible to others.
You can update your status to one of the following:
Online
Busy
Be right back
Away
On the phone
Out to lunch
Do not disturb
Your phone also automatically updates your status information when you’re in a call, enabled Do Not
Disturb on your phone, or your phone is offline. For example, if you enable the Do Not Disturb feature on
your phone, your availability automatically updates to Do Not Disturb.
When you enable Do Not Disturb on your phone, your presence status automatically changes to Do Not
Disturb. When you disable Do Not Disturb on your phone, your presence status automatically changes to
Online or On the Phone.
When you update your presence status to Do Not Disturb, incoming calls go to voicemail, and My Status:
Do Not Disturb displays in the status bar. Updating your status to Do Not Disturb does not enable Do Not
Disturb on your phone, and the Do Not Disturb icon does not display next to your phone lines.
When you change your presence status from Online to another status on your phone, the new status
displays in the status bar instead of the date, as shown next.

idle.
