    If you create a rule that transfers calls from Connection to a phone destination, you may inadvertently create a call-looping situation in which Connection forwards calls to your phone, and your phone consequently forwards the call back to Connection, and callers may never be able to reach you. Selecting this setting when you configure this type of destination to forward calls to Connection can help eliminate call-looping problems.

      FieldConsiderations
      From

      Use with the Caller(s), Caller Group, Phone Number, and/or Call Source fields to set conditions for the caller identity in the rule.

      Check the From check box, and select From or Not From in the list, as applicable.

      Caller(s)

      Use to add callers to a rule.

      a. Check the Caller(s) checkbox, then select Add Callers.

      b. On the Find Contacts page, select the applicable tab, depending on whether you want to search the list of users in the Connection directory or your contacts list. You may be able to search for both users and administrator-defined contacts in the Connection directory. Administrator-defined contacts are indicated by an asterisk (*) next to the name in the search results list.

      c. Enter a name or partial name, and select Find.

      d. Check the checkbox next to the caller you want to add to the rule. You can check multiple checkboxes to add more than one caller at a time.

      e. Select Add Users or Add Contacts, as applicable.

      f. To remove a caller from the rule, select the name, then select Delete Selected.

      Caller Group

      Use to add a caller group to a rule.

      Check the Caller Group checkbox, and select a caller group in the list. (Note that before you can use a caller group in a rule, you need to create the caller group.)

      Phone Number

      Use to add a phone number to a rule.

      Check the Phone Number checkbox, and enter the number that Connection will associate with the incoming call. Connection processes the rule only if the phone number of an incoming call matches exactly what you enter in the field. You can use the wildcard characters X and * to match more than one phone number:
      • The X character matches any single digit in the range 0 through 9. For example, the pattern 9XXX matches the range of phone numbers from 9000 through 9999.

      • The asterisk (*) character matches any sequence of digits. For example, the pattern 5556304* matches the phone numbers 5556304, 55563040, 55563041, 5556304100, and so forth.

      Call Source

      Use to include or exclude callers based on whether the caller can be identified by Connection as a known number (a Connection user, a contact, or a Connection administrator-defined contact) or as an unknown phone number (an external caller), if applicable.

      Check the Call Source checkbox, and select Known Number or Unknown Number in the list, as applicable.

      Received Between

      Use to set the time period during which Connection applies the rule to your incoming calls.

      Check the Received Between checkbox, and select Received Between or Not Received Between in the list, as applicable. Choose an hourly range from the hour and minute lists.

      I am in a Meeting

      Use to have Connection use your Microsoft Outlook calendar to determine whether you are in a meeting when it applies the rule to an incoming call. Connection considers you to be in a meeting when your Outlook meeting time is scheduled as Busy. Any meetings set as Tentative, Free, or Out of the Office are not considered by Connection.

      Check the I Am in a Meeting checkbox, and select I Am In a Meeting or I Am Not in a Meeting in the list, as applicable.

      This feature is not available on all systems. Ask your Connection administrator whether it is available to you.
