Transferring calls to an outside number
You can initiate a transfer from an IP extension to an outside number.
If the telephone line has the 3-Way Calling/Conference service or the Transfer and Clear service,

Allow the use of same line connect (by dialing 80)
, the user
can select hunt group 80 to dial the outside number on the same line the caller is on.
