Chapter 18 Configuring telephones: Digital telephones 129
BCM 4.0 Device Configuration Guide
Before you program Call Forwarding on lines on an Embark switch line, ensure that:
• The DTM is configured to DPNSS, and the Host Node switch connection is set to Embark.
• Both real channels and virtual channels are provisioned.
• Routing code or line pool code are programmed for the DPNSS to Embark link.
• Allow redirect check box must be selected. This field is also located under the Capabilities
tab.
During telephone programming for Fwd No Answer and Fwd Busy, when you enter the Forward
to digits, the system performs a validation check with the designated switch. If the validation does
not succeed, the system displays one of the messages shown in Table 39.
Configuring Preferences
The following paths indicate where to configure preferences in Element Manager, and through
Telset Administration:
• Element Manager: Telephony > Sets > Active Sets > Top panel Capabilities and
Preferences tab > Bottom panel - Preferences tab
