For most users, you will need to click on the Available option. This is for when your extension is in the normal status.

Once you are in here you can change the settings. In the box for Unanswered Calls you can change what to do with External Calls (Forward To:) and Internal Calls (Forward Internal Calls to:).

You can pick to send your calls to Voicemail, another Extension, Mobile Number or an External Number. The System Extension will let you forward the calls to a Ring Group or Call Queue and the Send Busy will send a busy tone. If you tick the box labelled Also Ring my Mobile, all calls will also go to your mobile (both internal and external) as well as your office extension.
