CME - Call for no answer external number

[rajesh.kumar]

Hi

I have Cisco CME 8.1

Is it possible to configure

call-forward busy

call-forward noan

only for the incoming external calls

If call within internal phone this should not forward the call.

Is posible to do call forward for only incoming external calls on CME ?

Hi Rajesh,

Have you tried;

forward local-calls

To allow internal (local) calls to be forwarded, use the forward local-calls command in ephone-dn or ephone-hunt configuration mode. To prevent internal calls from being forwarded, use the no form of this command.

forward local-calls

no forward local-calls

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Command Default

Internal calls are forwarded as specified in the ephone-dn or ephone-hunt configuration of the called party.

Usage Guidelines

Internal, or local, calls are defined as those calls that originate from other ephone-dns in the same Cisco Unified CME system.

When the no forward local-calls command is used in ephone-dn configuration mode, internal calls to that ephone-dn are not forwarded if the ephone-dn is busy or does not answer. If the ephone-dn is busy, the caller hears a busy signal. If the ephone-dn does not answer, the caller hears a ringback signal. The call is not forwarded even if call forwarding is enabled for the ephone-dn.
