96 CHAPTER 9: GETTING MORE FROM YOUR TELEPHONE SYSTEM Using Site Codes If some users have overlapping telephone extensions, your administrator can configure your telephone system to use site codes for you to dial people at remote offices. Your administrator chooses the site codes for your system. In this example, you dial a site code first, followed by the extension at the site. For example, as shown in Figure 11, to call someone in Atlanta, a user in Chicago dials the site code 62 and then the appropriate extension (1000 through 3999). To reach a user in Dallas, a user in Chicago dials 63 and then the appropriate extension (1000 through 3999). The site code prevents conflicts between the remote extension number and a duplicated extension number at the local site (Chicago).

Using Site Codes
If some users have
overlapping
telephone extensions, your administrator
can configure your telephone system to use
site codes
for you to dial
people at remote offices. Your administrator chooses the site codes for
your system. In this example, you dial a site code first, followed by the
extension at the site.
For example, as shown in
Figure 11
, to call someone in Atlanta, a user in
Chicago dials the site code 62 and then the appropriate extension (1000
through 3999). To reach a user in Dallas, a user in Chicago dials 63 and
then the appropriate extension (1000 through 3999). The site code
prevents conflicts between the remote extension number and a
duplicated extension number at the local site (Chicago).
