Forwarding Calls
You can configure your phone so that all incoming calls are forwarded to
another party. You can also forward calls while your phone rings.
All incoming calls can be forwarded to another party while Do Not Disturb is
enabled on your phone. For more information, contact your system
administrator.
The Polycom 550/560 phone offers two methods of call forwarding:
• Online Call Forwarding
• Phone-based Call Forwarding
Note
8x8 recommends using online call forwarding instead of phone-based call
forwarding so that your call forwarding instructions are stored online instead of on
your phone. If you set your call forwarding rules on your phone, they will not be in
effect if your phone is disconnected from an Internet connection.
