The final step to enable outdialing is to assign the UM dialing rules to the appropriate UM mailbox policies. Until this is done, the outdialing settings do not affect the UM-enabled users.

Once the rule groups are assigned, their settings will apply to the UM-enabled users configured to use that specific mailbox policy.

Configuring dialing restrictions on UM mailbox policy

Use the following steps to configure dialing restrictions on a UM mailbox policy:

  1. Open the EMC with an administrator account that has the Exchange Organization Administrator role.
  2. Expand the "Organization Configuration" and click "Unified Messaging."
  3. Select the "UM Mailbox Policies" tab and then select a UM mailbox policy to edit.
  4. Click "Properties" in the "Actions" pane.
  5. Select the "Dialing Restrictions" tab.
  6. Click the "Add" button for in-country/region rule groups or international rule groups.
  7. Select one of the rule groups you created previously from the list of rule groups and then click OK, as shown below.
  8. Click "OK" to save the change and close the Mailbox Policy Properties window.
