The default setting is "Active", which means that the identity selected as the phone's outgoing
identity at any given time will be used.
◦ Type
Select the type of functionality from the drop-down list. If you select "Key Event", a drop-
down list with the available key events will replace the text field under "Number". The default
setting is "line".
◦ Number
Enter one phone number or value for the function or, if the function is key event, select an
event from the drop-down list. Enter phone numbers exactly the way they need to be dialed,
i.e, type the number without spaces or punctuation marks between the digits. For example, a
number with an area code that might conventionally be notated as (916) 555-1234 should be
entered as 9165551234.
