Hotline to Hunt Group 1

[daleblizz]

System version: 8.6.2.20000-2

Hello,

I'm trying to program door phone as a hot line to several phones. I've tried to follow all the instructions I can find, but still no luck.

I can call the hunt group pilot number and that works, but I can't get the hotdial to ring when the handset is lifted. (Just gives dialtone.)

I'm curious if there's something additional I need to do to make it work with a hunt group pilot instead of an extension number?

Thanks for any suggestions.
Dale

The feature is called plar and its well documented on ciscos website. Haven't tried it on a hunt group but it should work. It's just another dn.
have you tested it ringing on a dn? Does that work?

Thanks "whykap"

I've read everything I could find. I even have this set-up on a system in New York, that is working, that I've used to compare it.

My problem is this is in Boston and I'm Dallas and it's like pulling teeth from a giraffe to get anyone to test it for me. I found a 7911 phone I can use here. So I'll set this up here and see if I can figure out why it's not working.

Thanks again.
