Hi,
I'm trying to turn on Internal Auto-Answer on a 1408.
Users guide say you do it as shown below.
Release 9

3.4 Auto Answer
You can select to have internal calls automatically connected if you are not already on a call. The call will be connected,
after the phone gives a brief tone, using either the phone's speaker or the headset as set by the phone's audio path
setting .
1.Press the MENU button.
2.Use the up and down arrow keys to locate the option Call Settings....
3.Press the Select soft key.
4.Use the up and down arrow keys to locate the option [highlight #FCE94F]Internal Auto-Answer.
[/highlight]5.Press the Change soft key to change the setting.

But I don't get that option so I found this...

21.12 Menu Access Control
Some menu options are dynamic and only appear when appropriate. For example, the Features menu cannot be
accessed when the phone is locked. Access to other menu options is controlled by your system administrator. They can
set system wide rules for which options phone users can access. They can also set specific rules for each phone user.
Even if you are restricted from accessing an option, it may still be applied for you by your system administrator. For
example, the system administrator may configure call forwarding settings for you.
[highlight #FCE94F]The system administrator can control your menu access to the following groups of functions:
[/highlight]· Basic Call Functions
Controls whether you can access the phone's menu options for call pickup, park, unpark and transfer to mobile
functions.
· Advanced Call Functions
Controls whether you can access the phone's menu options for do not disturb, account code, withhold number and
[highlight #FCE94F]internal auto-answer functions[/highlight]. In addition, the Account Code menu is only shown if the system has been
configured with accounts codes.


I can't find anywhere in Manager to change the above referenced setting.
I must be blind or dumb or both [censored]
