Transferring calls to an outside number
You can initiate a transfer from an IP extension to an outside number.
If the telephone line has the 3-Way Calling/Conference service or the Transfer and Clear service,
and the local extension has enabled Allow the use of same line connect (by dialing 80), the user
can select hunt group 80 to dial the outside number on the same line the caller is on.

1. Press Transfer or xfer to put the caller on hold.
2. Dial 9 (0 in some regions) or 81–88 to choose a hunt group.
