You may login to your office phone from another University Cisco 7841 phone so that it will temporarily take on all of your phones features including calls, voicemail indicators, ringtone and speed dials.
To Log In to your phone using Extension Mobility:
- Locate the Cisco 7841 phone at your temporary work station.
- Press the APPLICATIONS button to access your Settings.
- Use the Navigation button to select Extension Mobility.
- Enter NetID by typing into the keypad in a text fashion.
- Enter PIN: "This can be obtained from your manager or Northwestern IT" (assuming you have not changed this PIN previously). This PIN may be reset in your Self Care Portal.
Note: This PIN should not be confused with your voicemail PIN as they are not related.
- Press the Submit soft key (soft keys are visible on the bottom of the phone screen and will change depending on the phone's state).
