Ring strategy – Select the appropriate ring strategy for this ring group:
o
Hunt – this will start ringing on the first extension, then the second etc.
o
Ring all – all phones will ring at the same time
Ring time – Specify how long the phones should ring for.
3. In the section ‘Ring group members’ specify the extensions that should be part of this
ring group. Simply click on the extensions and click on the -> to make them a member.
Move the extensions up or down to configure the priority of an extension.
4. In the section ‘Destination if no answer’, you can define what should happen if the call
does not get answered by the ring group.
Call Queues (Paid editions only)
Call Queues allow calls to be queued whilst agents (members of a call queue) answer
calls. Calls do not go unanswered but are queued until an agent is available to take the
call. For example, you can define a group of 3 sales people, and have the general sales
number route to a sales call queue. If all 3 sales people are busy, callers will be kept on
hold until the next sales person is free. When you create a call queue, you also assign it a
virtual extension number. This will be the number used by the phone system to “address”
the Call Queue.
