3. In the main window click My Call Forwards
4. If you have more than one number you will need to select the number you'd like to configure for call forwarding
5. On the call configuration page enter a number including area code (919XXXXXXX) in the Forwarding all calls to field and click apply. 
6. To remove a call forward you will need to clear the number out of Forwarding all calls to field and click apply.

Note: If you are unable to login or do not see a phone number available to forward to, submit a ticket through your service desk requesting “Assign [Duke phone number] to [NetID] for https://myphone.duke.edu access.”
