performed automatically to the calling party of the last incoming call. This will apply
whether the incoming call was answered,unanswered, or encountered a busy tone. Two-level

number of the last incoming call prior to deciding whether or not to recall that number.

management feature which will enable the subscriber to have the system redial the last
number called from his/her station. This applies regardless of whether the original call
