You can specify which users will be able to receive transferred calls or voice messages from users who call in to a subscriber access number. By default, the Users within this dial plan option is selected. You can change this setting to allow callers to transfer calls or send voice messages to users located in the global address list, to a specific extension number, to a UM auto attendant, or to a specific set of users contained in a custom address list.

- Anyone in the default global address
list Use this option to allow callers who call
in to a subscriber access number to locate and contact anyone who's
listed in the global address list. This includes all users who are
mailbox-enabled.
- Only this extension Use this option to
allow callers to connect to an extension number that you specify.
You can only use numeric digits for the extension. The number of
digits that you define in this field must match the number of
digits in the extension numbers that are configured on the UM dial
plan.

transferred to another auto attendant. The auto attendant you
choose here can be a speech-enabled or non speech-enabled auto
attendant.

to allow callers who call in to a subscriber access number to
locate and contact users who are in a defined custom address list.
