Why each option
In Cisco Unity Connection, Alternate Extensions allow multiple directory numbers to be associated with a single voicemail box, so messages from any of those numbers are consolidated in one inbox.
Alternate Extensions in Cisco Unity Connection let an administrator assign additional directory numbers to a subscriber's account, all of which resolve to the same mailbox. When a caller dials any of the mapped extensions and reaches voicemail, the message is deposited in that one shared inbox, eliminating the need for multiple voicemail accounts.
Notification Devices configure how a subscriber is alerted about new messages (e.g., phone, pager, SMS), not how multiple extensions share one mailbox.
Alternate Names allow the auto-attendant directory to find a user by alternate spellings of their name, not by additional phone numbers.
Message Settings controls playback preferences and message aging policies, not the mapping of directory numbers to a mailbox.
Caller Input defines touch-tone actions available to callers during a greeting, which is unrelated to extension-to-mailbox mapping.
Mailbox refers to the storage container for messages itself and is not a configurable feature for linking multiple extensions.
