Cisco VoIP - Setting a out-of-office greeting in the Voicemail Portal

How to set an out-of-office greeting

You must be first logged into the portal. Please note that you must be either on a UW-Madison campus network or using VPN to access the portal. Portal access is only for accounts assigned to an individual person. For more information, see Cisco VoIP - Voicemail Portal Sign in and Overview

Please note that a caller will still be allowed to leave a message. Only voicemail administrators can set the system to prevent a caller from leaving a message. Please let DoIT Network Applications know at least 1 week in advance if you would like to prevent callers from leaving a message by creating a DoIT Help Desk case.


From the Greetings drop-down menu:

1. Select View Greetings.
