feature is useful for picking up a ringing or held call or for joining a call on a line
that is not assigned to the phone.

to No Access or Out Only for a line assigned to an extension or lines within
a pool, a user at the restricted extension hears busy tone if Direct Line

extension (but the user can join a call or access a held or transferred call on
the line).
