Unconditional
The Call Forward Unconditional feature allows users to forward all of their calls to another extension or line.
Setting up Call Forward Unconditional
You must condigure and enable this service before your users can use it.

To set the Call Forward Unconditional feature:
1. In the subscriberServicesMIB , locate the subscriberServicesIfCallForwardActivationTable group.
2. Set the status of the service in the subscriberServicesCallForwardUnconditionalActivation variable
to inactive or active .
This variable starts the service (active) or stops the service (inactive).
If you want to let the user start or stop the service with his or her handset, you must enter a
sequence of digits in steps 3 and 4. The
subscriberServicesCallForwardUnconditionalActivation
variable is automatically updated to reflect the activation status according to the user’s setting.
3. Define the digits that users must dial to start the service in the
subscriberServicesCallForwardUnconditionalEnableDigitMap variable (under the
subscriberServicesActivationDigitmaps group).
Define this variable only if you want to let the user start the service with his or her handset. If you
rather want to have the control over the activation/deactivation of the service, see Step 2.
For instance, you could decide to put “*70” as the sequence to activate the service. This sequence
must be unique and follow the syntax for digit maps (see
“Chapter 21 - Digit Maps” on page 291 ).
Dialing this digit map does not have any effect unless the service’s status is “enabled”.
The activating sequence is set for all the lines of the Mediatrix 4104. You cannot have a different
sequence for each line.
4. Define the digits that users must dial to stop the service in the
subscriberServicesCallForwardUnconditionalDisableDigitMap variable (under the
subscriberServicesActivationDigitmaps group).
Define this variable only if you want to let the user stop the service with his or her handset. If you
rather want to have the control over the activation/deactivation of the service, see Step 2.
For instance, you could decide to put “*71” as the sequence to deactivate the service. This
sequence must be unique and follow the syntax for digit maps (see
“Chapter 21 - Digit Maps” on
page 291 ). Dialing this digit map does not have any effect unless the service’s status is “enabled”.
The deactivating sequence is set for all the lines of the Mediatrix 4104. You cannot have a different
sequence for each line.
5. Define the address to which forward incoming calls in the
subscriberServicesCallForwardUnconditionalForwardingAddress variable.
Accepted formats are:
• telephone numbers (5551111)
• SIP URLs such as ”scheme:user@host”. For instance, “sip:user@foo.com”.
This string is used literally, so cosmetic symbols (such as the dash in “555-xxxx”) should not be
present.
Because this variable is located in a table, you can have a different string for each line.
