Station Hunting examples
In this example (
Table 56
), extension 2 is the called extension. Because extension
2 is busy, the system follows the station-hunting chain to find an idle extension.
The system cannot find an idle extension so it returns busy tone to the caller. Note
that the chain terminates with extension 5. This means that the system cannot
route the call to extension 1 even though it is an idle extension in the chain.
