Logging Out Of Hunt Groups; Using A Shared Line; Understanding Shared Lines - Cisco 7925G-EX User Manual

Logging Out of Hunt Groups

If your organization receives a large number of incoming calls, you might be a member of a hunt group.
A hunt group includes a series of directory numbers that share the incoming call load. When the first
directory number in the hunt group is busy, the system hunts for the next available directory number
in the group and directs the call to that phone. When you are away from your phone, you can prevent
hunt group calls from ringing your phone by logging out of hunt groups.
If you want to...
Log out of hunt groups to temporarily
block hunt group calls
Log in to receive hunt group calls
Tip
Logging out of hunt groups does not prevent non-hunt group calls from ringing your phone.

Using a Shared Line

Your system administrator might ask you to use a shared line if you:
• Have multiple phones and want one phone number
• Share call-handling tasks with coworkers
• Handle calls on behalf of a manager

Sharing Call Information and Barging
Phones that share a line each display information about calls that are placed and received on the shared
line. This information might include caller ID and call duration. (See the
exceptions.)
When call information is visible in this way, you and coworkers who share a line can add yourselves
to calls using either Barge or cBarge. See
• Barge—Allows you to join a shared-line call with an IP phone that has the built-in bridge enabled.
• cBarge—Allows you to join a shared-line call with any IP phone and convert the call to a
conference.
