  2. Set call forward:


Dial *71 followed by a code to set the user’s call forward: 1 to enable, 0 to disable, and 9 to change the forwarding number.

That is:

*719 (audio to set the number to be forwarder): Set the number.
*711: to enable (audio confirmation of forward enable and the number to be forwarded).
*710: to disable (audio confirmation of forward disable).

To change the number to be forwarded repeat the steps:

*719: to set the new number (the last setting will be replaced).

In parallel the forward changes must be validated in the GUI or a forward applied as well.

Extension -> Extensions -> Preference -> Extension number | forward field.
