# Backup users

Backup users are users who have been assigned a backup terminal "Backup terminals".This shows you the backup users if Dual Homing has been set up and the communication server is used as a backup communication server for Mitel SIP terminals by other primary communication servers.

Apart from the call number, the user name, the type of terminal and the assigned permission set, the overview list under the status parameter Registered also shows directly where the terminal assigned to the user is currently registered:
