Creating a Group of Phones
A Group can be used to link together a set of Phones. This Group can then be used, for example, to
route calls to these handsets or page these handsets or send an Event to the handsets. The benefit of
this facility is that a call/message will be sent regardless of who is logged on to the handsets at the time.
For further information on Events please refer to the Using Events section from page 181.
