Set up Do Not Disturb (DND)
list-menuFeedback?
This Help article is for Cisco Wireless Phone 9821 registered to Cisco Unified Communications Manager (Unified CM).

When Do Not Disturb (DND) is turned on, either no audible rings occur during the ringing-in state of a call, or no audible or visual notifications of any type occur.

One exception is the Multilevel Precedence and Preemption (MLPP) call. The user still receives the priority calls on the phone even though the DND is turned on.

When Do Not Disturb (DND) is turned on, the header section of the phone screen shows a red bar and the DND icon the DND-On icon.

You can configure the phone with a softkey template with DND as one of the selected features.

For more information, see Configure Software-Based Endpoints.
