<<You can Dial() extension SIP/line1&SIP/line2>> Yes, and if the multiple extensions that ring are members of the same group then any one of the phones can pickup the call.
So the next question is: how does the receptionist put the system into "group ring" mode. The answer is to have the receptionist call a nominated number such as **221 (enable group ringing) and **222 (to disable group ringing). When the receptionist calls **221 a global variable (or an entry in the registry is created) is made to contain a value that indicates group ringing is in effect. When **222 is called, calls ring on the operator extension. We use a similar approach to have support calls forwarded to mobile phones out of office hours.
