Analog Extension |Block Calls| 1

[Takayama]

Is possible to login and logout analog extensions ?

I have a client that wants to set a short code to block all calls from the phone.

In IP phone we will use Extension Login and Extension Logout.
But what can we do for analog extensions ?

Thanks !

Analog extensions can have a login code as well...but that won't block internal station to station calls, only outbound. If you want a phone, to block all calls, unplug it. What version are you on? R9 has an option to block outgoing and incoming call bar (though emergency dial overrides this).

I'm using 8.1

So, in release 8.1 is not possible to block calls ?

For example: the user will go to the lunch, and he doesn't wants that nobody make calls from his phone.
In ip phone is just use login and logout. In analog phone it doesn't work.

Well, even a login/logout wouldn't be the best idea in that case. I would do an extension "lock" to protect it from mis-use. Analog phones can log out too...as long as they have a login code set.
This is sounding like a personnel issue, and not a phone issue. Phones cannot fix people, unless you hit them hard enough with it.
