If the active Call Handling Mode is configured to send calls to your mobile phone number (i.e. not your
ShoreTel extension), then unanswered calls are sent to your carrier voicemail system.
If your mobile device is turned off, calls are sent to your ShoreTel voicemail.
Configuring Extension Assignments
This page is used to define and set Extension Assignment numbers. The default Extension
Assignment number is the one that the ShoreTel system uses when making a call using QuickDialer,
Voicemail, or Call History. When you place a call to you through QuickDialer, Voicemail, or Call History,
the ShoreTel server places the call and then calls you back on the number you have defined as your
Default Extension Assignment when the connection is established. You can then either accept the call
by pressing “1” or by answering the call (depending on your Default Extension Assignment).
Primary Phone
is your office/desk extension and
Mobile
is the phone number of your mobile device.
Both these extension assignments are automatically populated from the information you entered
during installation. You have the option to configure additional external extensions. Existing external
extensions—including mobile extensions—can also be edited or deleted.
