Keeping an IP telephone active
In some circumstances, you may want to have your IP telephone stay active after it is physically
disconnected. For example, when your IP Software Phone 2050 is turned off, you may still want
callers to go to your voicemail. To keep your IP telephone active and retain DN-specific features,
activate the Keep DN alive feature.

Disconnect the network connection.
