As Todd mentions, I might be using an old term with a newer technology but in searching around, we were not able to confirm this. I'm not sure if I am using the right term but years back, when I needed to have multiple calls to the same phone number, I would use a hunt group. The telco would program my main line to ring on the first available line, then the next free line, one after another. Also, here's the twist, in one case, it might be multiple analog lines because this is going into an older PBX which only has multiple analog line inputs. In the other, I need to find a device that will take a SIP trunk and convert that into a PRI port because the PBX only has a PRI port.
