About this task
You can alter the displayed phone number and the name of the calling party to appear as a different number than the actual origin. The Send-NN feature enables you to control the caller ID displayed during outgoing calls.
The
Send-NN button offers two variants:
Permanent (P) Variant: When you configure and enable the Send-NN button with the P variant, all outgoing calls display a changed identity. You can establish multiple Send-NN buttons using the P variant. You can activate only one Send-NN button at a time. If you activate a new Send-NN button to exhibit a different identity, the previously activated Send-NN button is deactivated.
Transient (T) Variant: When you configure and enable the Send-NN button with the T variant, the user is prompted to enter the extension of the destination party to initiate the call. Transient mode is a temporary mode. You must always select the Send-NN button to show the alternate number and name for each call.
