Hunt Group Extensions (#505)

Use this feature to assign any number of extensions to a Hunt Group. When extensions are in a
Hunt Group, an incoming call searches or "hunts" for the first available extension. The system
supports up to eight Hunt Groups; however, Hunt Group 7 is used exclusively for the voice
messaging system, and Hunt Group 8 is used exclusively for transferring and detecting fax calls.
For instructions on ringing or paging extensions in a Hunt Group or transferring calls to a Hunt
Group, see "Group Calling–Ring/Page (I7G/I*7G)" on page
