5.2.4.6 Virtual PS
Description
An extension number can be assigned for a portable station (PS) without registering the PS unit itself. This is
known as temporary registration. If a forward destination is then assigned for this PS, all calls to that extension
number will be forwarded to the assigned destination. Using this setting to forward calls to outside destinations
or destinations at another PBX allows those destinations to receive calls as if they were within the PBX. In
addition, depending on system programming, the forward destination can use some of the features of the PBX.
This can be especially useful for a cellular phone user, who can use his cellular phone as if it were his extension
when he is away from his desk.
