Enable Dial by Extension – Enable Dial by Extension allows you to enable calling an extension directly from the Auto Attendant if the caller knows the user’s extension number.

If no key is pressed – This allows you to select a dial pad menu option, repeat the menu prompt recording, or hang up the call if no digit is pressed when the caller is in the Auto Attendant.

If the unassigned key is pressed – Configure what to do with the call if the caller does not press any digits when in the auto-attendant and what do to if the caller presses a key that is not configured in the Dial Pad
