5.5 Parallel Ringing
Parallel ringing makes it possible for an incoming call to ring several
phones simultaneously and for the call to be answered on any of the
ringing phones. The main advantage is that you do not risk losing any
incoming calls.
The parallel ringing feature requires that all phones that should be
included be defined in a parallel ringing list, which is set up by the system
administrator. Only calls to a predefined main extension will be distrib-
uted to the phones on the parallel ringing list. Incoming calls to other
extensions will ring only on their respective extensions. You can deacti-
vate parallel ringing temporarily. To answer a parallel ringing call, lift the
handset on any of the ringing phones.
