Disable Ringing for Incoming Calls on BLF Lines
Objective

Applies To
- Poly Phones
- Yealink Phones
Procedure
- Poly: Go to Menu > Settings > Basic > Ring Type > Attended Calls > Select Silent Ring.
- Yealink: Yealink phones allow us to change this setting in the web GUI.

Additional Information
Make sure and verify with the end user that they are only wanting a visual notification on the BLF line. As these steps below will disable the audible ring for any BLF lines. This way the end user will only be audibly alerted to calls coming directly to their phone/extension.
