Configuring Follow Me

Configure the Follow Me button using the GUI or XML.
Follow me diverts all telephone calls targeted to one extension to a second extension. All incoming calls targeted to a phone with Follow Me enabled are immediately diverted to the Follow Me target. User settings from a phone with Follow Me enabled are applied to calls received at the target extension.
