AT&T IP Flexible Reach Customer Portal: User Support
Call Forwarding - No Answer
The Call Forwarding – No Answer feature enables you to redirect calls to another phone number when an incoming call isn't answered within a specified number of rings. (Each ring cycle lasts 6 seconds.) You must specify the forward-to number and the number of rings before forwarding.
Call Forwarding - No Answer settings are superseded by these features (if they're enabled): Call Forwarding – Selective, Call Acceptance, and Call Rejection.
Note: If enabled, the Intercept Announcement feature takes precedence over all other active features. For details, see Intercept Announcement.
If Call Forwarding - Not Reachable is set for this user and the Call Forwarding - Not Reachable timer expires before the specified number of ring for Call Forward - No Answer have played, then the Call Forward - Not Reachable settings are applied.
Forwarded callers are treated according to the forward-to phone number's settings. For example, if the forwarded call isn't answered, callers may be prompted to leave voicemail for the forward-to phone number, not for the first phone number.
