If an extension user receives a new message in their mailbox, Cascading Message Notification will call
them at up to five preset destinations to let them know a new voice mail message has arrived. A
destination can be an outside number (such as a cell phone, pager, or home office) or a co-worker's
extension.
The Cascading Message Notification destinations are set up in the Notification Schedule. Each of the five
schedule entries can be individually enabled or disabled and provides options for:
-
Type
-
Start Hour
- The time the entry becomes active.
-
End Hour
- The time the entry becomes inactive.
-
Phone
- The destination telephone, pager, or extension number.
-
Busy Attempts
- The number of times the system will try the destination when it is busy. The system
cancels notification callouts for this entry when the Busy Attempts
or
RNA Attempts number is met.
-
RNA Attempts
- The number of times the system will try the destination when it is unanswered. The system
cancels notification callouts for this entry when the RNA Attempts
or
Busy Attempts number is met.
-
Security
- Enables or disables the Security Code requirement for the notification entry. For
example, you may want to disable the Security Code when the entry is your cell phone. It
is often inconvenient to dial digits after answering the notification callout.
