No way to do that without using a stopwatch. sipx wants "seconds", I think the default is 20 seconds. There is no way in this version to specify how long to ring an individual line. It's a global setting right now. Hunt groups, etc, can be done differently and it all depends on how you want this to work.
He can use a personal auto attendant to go to voicemail greeting which could say "press "1" for my assistant. There is also a way to do this with a phantom extension, but it is really dependent on how complicated you want this on thing to be.
