    Re-program the "Messages" hard button

    I am working with an S8500 and Avaya 2410 phones. One of my users was cleaning her phone and now the hard coded Messages button just dials 3 instead of the whole extension to get VMs. How and where is this button programmed? Thanks in advance! I love this forum

    Cannot dial 855 toll-free numbers

    I am working with an S8500 Media Server. We are not able to dial the new 855 toll free numbers. I assume this is because it's a new prefix, but I don't know where/how to add it so my switch recognizes it. The recording we hear is: Your call did not go through. Please try your call again...

    Can a station live in two places?

    I'm working with an S8500 Media Gateway. I have a manager who is going to have a physical office in two locations in. Can his extension live in both places, or does one of them have to be a bridged appearance or something similar. What is the best way to go about this?? Thanks.
