Blocking Calls 8-3
8. Blocking Calls
Privacy
The Privacy feature lets the user:
• prevent callers from using the Busy Override feature to break
through to his extension when he is on a call
• prevent another party with the same multiple line appearance from
bridging (joining) his call
• prevent callers from queuing for his telephone
• exclude a party that has bridged (joined) his call
If the user’s telephone has been set up at the communications server
for Automatic Privacy, all calls he makes are private unless he turns off
the Privacy feature.
If his telephone has been set up for Manual Privacy, he must turn on
the Privacy feature whenever he wants a call to be private.
When Privacy is on, the status light next to the Privacy key is also on.
For further information about the features affected by Privacy, see the
following sections:
• “Bridged Call” on page 5–1
• “Busy Override” on page 5–3
• “Private Hold” on page 3–15
• “Busy Standby Queuing” on page 5–4
