Route by Redirection

The method "Route by Redirection" allows that all the users can use the same voice mail number (voice pilot number) and nevertheless have their individual voice box. Because of this, this number can be entered in the PBX globally as "dropping number".

Moreover, all the users can call this number from their office telephone in order to access their mailbox by telephone.

If available, a key for the call-back to the mailbox can be configured in the PBX globally.

 

Example:

As "voice mail number", the number 9999 has been determined. The PBX routes all the calls to this number to the ixi-UMS Business Kernel.

 

A user switches the call transfer at his telephone to the number 9999. When a call comes in at the user's phone, this call is transferred to 9999.

The ixi-UMS Business server accepts the call, but evaluates the originally dialed number, the telephone number, and searches for this telephone number in the specified LDAP database. When user is found to this number, the deposited announcement is played. The caller can leave a message, which is sent to the mail server and then to the mailbox of the user.

The user can access this voice-maiboxl e.g. by calling the number 9999 from his office telephone. He then is connected to his mailbox immediately.
