Why each option

To hide the CEO from external directory searches in Unity Connection, you assign the CEO to a restricted partition and configure the external directory handler with a calling search space that excludes that partition.

ADo not activate the CEO as a Cisco Unity Connection subscriber.

Not activating the CEO as a subscriber would eliminate his voicemail capability entirely, which is far more disruptive than simply hiding him from external directory searches.

BConfigure a directory call handler that blocks all transfers.

A directory call handler that blocks all transfers would prevent every caller, including internal users, from reaching any subscriber through that handler, not just external callers trying to reach the CEO.

CConfigure a directory handler that uses a partition and calling search space to allow calls to everyone

A directory handler configured to allow calls to everyone explicitly includes the CEO and is the direct opposite of the desired restriction.

DUse the preconfigured partition and calling search space. No other configuration is necessary.

The default preconfigured partition and CSS in Unity Connection do not restrict any subscribers, so the CEO would remain fully visible to external callers without additional configuration.

EConfigure a restricted partition and assign it to the CEO. Create a directory call handler for externalCorrect

By placing the CEO's user object in a restricted partition and configuring the external-facing directory call handler with a calling search space (CSS) that does not include that partition, external callers will be unable to locate or transfer to the CEO via directory search. This uses Unity Connection's native partition and CSS access control model to selectively hide a subscriber from a specific class of callers. Internal directory handlers can be assigned a different CSS that does include the restricted partition, preserving internal access.
