Forward on No Answer
Forward on no answer redirect calls that have alerted your phone but have not been answered for
some reason.
• By default this function is only applied to incoming external calls to you. However if required
internal calls can also be selected.
• When enabled, all calls matching the settings are forwarded to the number set as the forward
on busy/no answer destination. That number can be internal or external.
• No answer is defined as having been presented to your phone for your no answer time (default
15 seconds).
• Hunt group calls are not forwarded.
• The 'forward on busy' and 'forward on no answer' options use the same forwarding destination
number. If no number is set, they use the same destination as set for 'forward unconditional.'
• If you also have voicemail enabled , if the forwarded call is still unanswered, the system
redirects the call to voicemail. Note, this is not always possible for calls that have been
forwarded to an external number.
