Re: (ASCEND) ISP's Huntgroups



We use several kinds -  On on PRIs, which are used for analog and ISDN we use one number for the whole group, and traffic is disrtibuted in a "most idle" flow,  traffic is some what averaged per circuits.  This again is all digital from the class 5 switch!  In
one group we have an overflow to a data only group so our ISDN customers "never" get a busy signal!

digital is better, but analog is cheaper so:

On our analog groups we use a lead hunt group number with non-hunting numbers for each line.  We then have call-forward busy (sometimes cheaper than hunting) and call-forward no-answer (set to 2 rings, so if we have a bad modem it goes straight to the next
line).  On the last line I put call forward to the first line thus creating a circular group.  (We have some users that were given numbers in the middle of the group before we started using the call-forward no-answer trick.)

Best regards for the new year!
