Mobile twinning

Last Updated : Mar 20, 2024 |

If Mobile Twinning is enabled in IP Office, a user can send internal and external calls to an external number, for example, the mobile telephone.

  • Both the internal and external telephones ring when a call is received. The call can be answered from either telephone.

  • If the feature Do Not Disturb (DND) is active for the user, any callers to the internal extension number will hear the busy tone and the external telephone will not ring. If a caller is entered in to the DND exception list, for example using the one-X Portal for IP Office application, only the internal telephone will ring.

  • If any of the forward options are active, both the external and the telephone where the calls are forwarded to will ring.

  • If the Follow Me option is active, only the telephone that the calls are forwarded to will ring. The external telephone number will not ring.
