Feature Access Codes (FAC) (also known as Star (*) Codes) are a convenient means for turning voice features on and off. With FAC codes, you can activate or deactivate features like Call Forwarding Always, Call Forwarding Busy, Call Forwarding No Answer, Do Not Disturb, Last Number Redial, and more. Refer to this code list for instructions.

The Barge-in Exempt feature will prevent calls being barged in on a per user basis. |
