MCR and MARP 1

[hoarsepucky]

MCR key on key 1 on 2 2008's. MARP = YES in PARM. Forward key on set w/MCR MARP'd does not forward calls to MCR. Actually, neither set forward key forwards calls. MARP just set to yes in PARM. Does Opt 11 (Rel 23.18) need ini to set MARP to active? Why does this not work?

The MARP indication behind a directory number says the phone with this appearance will control the forwarding by FDN and HUNT.
The Manual Call Forward key will only forward the Key 0 DN and any single appearance DN.
Your MCR appears on 2 phones on key 1.
Manual Call Forward will not work.
