For release 1.2(0) or older, the phone supports a single line only, which can't be a shared line.
For release 1.3(0) or newer, the phone supports up to six lines, including shared lines.
At a minimum, configure the following fields on the Directory Number Configuration window. If required
by your site policies and procedures for new extension provisioning, you may need to configure more fields.
