Privacy
Privacy controls the ability of more than one person to use the same extension or
Exchange line at the same time. Privacy applies to multiple appearances of extensions,
Phantom extensions, outside Lines and outside Line Group buttons. The application of
Privacy to individual telephones is controlled in system programming.
By default, the system is private. If you are in a conversation, another telephone with
an appearance of the line on which you are talking cannot intrude unless that
telephone has been programmed for Privacy Override. In that event, the other
telephone may enter and leave the conversation at will. If all users are provided with
Privacy Release in Class of Service, the system will function as non-private.
Your telephone may be equipped with a
Privacy Release
and/or a
Privacy on
Line
button. On a normally private telephone,
Privacy Release
allows other
appearances of you line to join the conversation. On a normally non-private telephone,
Privacy on Line
allows you to exclude others. The Privacy condition may be
toggled at any time during a conversation. At the end of the conversation, the line’s
privacy condition returns to its original state.
