To add a new extension list:
1 Click Dial Plan > Extension List.
2 Click Add.
3 In the List Extension field, type the number that you want to assign to the
new extension list. Do not select a number that is currently in use by the
system as either an extension or as the number of an extension list.
You may use the default extension number.
4 Type an asterisk preceding the extension number. By convention, the
asterisk indicates that the number represents an extension list.
5 In the Name field, type the name that you want to assign to the new
extension list. Names can include uppercase and lowercase alphanumeric
characters, spaces, underscores, and hyphens.
6 If you want calls to cycle through the extensions in the list, enable the
Cycle Extensions check box. Each time the system accesses the extension
list, it uses the next extension in the list. Calls effectively progress through
the list to balance the load of calls. If you disable the Cycle Extensions
check box, the extension selection always starts from the top of the list.
If an extension in the list has a higher priority, the system uses the highest
priority extension regardless of the Cycle Extension setting.
7 To add an extension to the list:
a If the list does not include any members, click the check boxes next
the extension that you want to add to the list.
b If the list already has members, click Show all to display a list of
extensions that you can add to the list's membership.
NOTE: You can toggle between the Show all and Show members only
buttons to display extensions that have membership in the list and the
extensions that are not members of the list but which you can add to the
list, and to confirm your changes.
8 To change the priority of an extension, enter a priority number in the field
next to the selected extension (from a high of 1 through a low of 99).
The default value is 50. When the system accesses an extension list, it first
attempts to use the highest priority extension.
9 Click Apply to make the changes and keep this window open or click OK
