Call Server Configuration
Polycom, Inc. 259
The system selects hunt group members in round-robin fashion. It skips members that are in a call or have
unconditional call forwarding enabled. If the selected group member rejects the call or doesn’t answer
before the timeout, the system tries the next group member.
If all members have been attempted (or skipped) without successfully terminating the call, the system sends
the BUSY message to the caller.
Registered endpoints can add themselves to a hunt group by dialing the vertical service code (VSC) for
joining (default is *71) followed by the hunt group alias. They can leave a hunt group by dialing the VSC for
leaving (default is *72) followed by the hunt group alias. An endpoint can belong to multiple hunt groups.
The Hunt Groups page lists the defined hunt groups and lets you add, edit, and delete hunt groups. The
following table describes the fields in the list.
