Remote call fowarding

[James991985]

The system is a Avaya IP office 500V2, using r8.1 manager. Configured as a pbx system. Using a embedded voice in IP office mode. What iam trying to do is when Iam out of the office I can call into my extension(201) and set up to forward all external calls coming into my extension to forward them to my cell. Just to be clear I want the person who call the extension to be transferred to the cell so I can talk to them on my cell. I tried setup short codes in avaya manager under ext201 short code list *01(forward unconditional on) and * 00 (unconditional off). So when I call into the system and dial * it takes me to my voicamail options and when I enter *01 it says email not set up. Is there another setting to change or am I using the wrong ip office mode.

You will need to use mobile twinning and FNE codes to turn that stuff on/off etc, it can't be done from a mailbox in embedded as that would open it up to toll fraud

I got it set up to use mobile twinning, but is there a way to turn off or on this feature from the cell phone and if so how would it be done.
