Whats needed for the find me follow me. I have a BCM 50 with all copper trunks. I only want this for 1 phone and understand it will use 2 trunks. What else do I need, is it just the lic.?
 
You need a lic. but I don't think it will work with analog lines. Saw an earlier thread about it. Search it.
 
First off, as stated, you do need licenses for it to work. You also need to go into LAN/CTE setup and set up the virtual DNs as these are the "extensions" that will do the actual dialing out. They probably don't have access to the line pool yet if you haven't set them up.

As for analog lines, I think you need to be running R6 for it to be supported. With R5, it would only work on digital trunks (PRI, VOIP etc). Don't know if they changed it via an R5 patch or not so make sure the document you're reading is not specific to R6.
 
If the BCM is a 50b, 50be or 50ba (i.e. inbuilt BRI), you won't be able to use the analog trunks on the main unit.
