Procedure

To test UM Call Answering by leaving a voice mail message for a user

  1. Open the Exchange UM Test Phone application by double-clicking ExchangeUMTestPhone.exe.

  2. Enter the phone number that you are using to connect to the UM server. This number is the pilot number of the Hunt Group object. Alternatively, you can leave this field empty.

  3. In Diversion settings, select the Diversion option and enter the extension number of the user's mailbox in the Diversion number field.

  4. Click Make Call to place the call to the user's extension.

    Note:
    In Call Answering mode, the Exchange UM Test Phone application sends the extension number for the user.

  5. When you are prompted, record the voice message by using the microphone or by playing a .wav file.

  6. In the user interface for the Exchange UM Test Phone application, click Hang Up to disconnect the call after you complete your call.
