Enable an Informational Announcement on a UM Dial Plan

  • Artikel

 

Applies to: Exchange Server 2010 SP3, Exchange Server 2010 SP2

You can enable an informational announcement on a Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 Unified Messaging (UM) dial plan. By default, an informational announcement isn't played to callers, including Outlook Voice Access users who dial in to a subscriber access number. If you want an informational announcement to be played, you must create a .wav file to use for the informational announcement after you create a dial plan, and then enable the informational announcement on the dial plan.

You can use an informational announcement for general announcements that change more frequently than the welcome greeting does, or for announcements required by corporate compliance policies. When it's important that the whole informational announcement be heard, you can configure it to be uninterruptible. This prevents a caller from pressing a key or speaking a command to interrupt and stop the informational announcement.
