A free extension must be available in order for an extension name to be assigned (if possible, an
extension should be selected that does not exist at the hardware level).
This extension must be configured as an answering machine.
The extension must be assigned to a free index in call management with an initial entry of "*"
in order for the extension name to be forwarded. The second entry contains the number of the
extension that is to be called with the extension name entered (this entry can also be a group).
Example
The DID number 250 is assigned to Siemens, for example.
The extension with extension number 200 is to be called using both visual and audible signals.
