Syntax
New-UMAutoAttendant -Name <String> -UMDialPlan <UMDialPlanIdParameter> [-DomainController <Fqdn>] [-DTMFFallbackAutoAttendant <UMAutoAttendantIdParameter>] [-PilotIdentifierList <MultiValuedProperty>] [-SpeechEnabled <$true | $false>] [-Status <Enabled | Disabled>] [-TemplateInstance <PSObject>]
Detailed Description
The New-UMAutoAttendant cmdlet lets you create one or more UM auto attendants. Unified Messaging auto attendants have a forest-wide scope in the configuration container in Active Directory. When you create a new UM auto attendant, it is linked to a single UM dial plan that contains a list of extension numbers. Linking the UM auto attendant to the UM dial plan enables the associated Unified Messaging servers to answer incoming calls by using the UM auto attendant.
