FIRMWARE 1.0.4.4 GXW42XX USER MANUAL PAGE 25 OF 57
One additional and popular way to use the Hunting Group feature is called “multiplexed analog lines”. In
this configuration, a legacy PBX system with 8 FXO trunks can be connected to 8 GXW 42xx ports
configured as a Hunting Group. The GXW can be registered to a SIP server provider using only one
phone number. If the SIP service provider allows multiple calls to the same number, the GXW will allow 8
concurrent calls to the same SIP number. All office members can be reached remotely using the same
phone number in a round-robin fashion.
Example Configuration of a typical Hunting Group:
1. Configure the SIP account from your VoIP Service Provider on FXS port 1 under FXS Ports
webpage.
2. Select Active under the Hunting Group drop box for FXS port 1.
3. For the remaining ports (say 2, 3 and 4) select 1 for Hunting Group. Ports 2, 3 and 4 are now
active members of the hunting group associated with port 1.
This configuration will route all calls directed to FXS port 1 to ports 2, 3 and/or 4 in round robin fashion
respectively if port 1 is busy or times out. You can configure the ring timeout on the Profile page.
Example configuration of a multiple Hunting Group:
FXS Port #1: SIP UserID and Authenticate ID entered, Hunting group set to "Active"
FXS Port #2: SIP UserID and Authenticate ID left blank, Hunting Group set to "1"
FXS Port #3: SIP UserID and Authenticate ID left blank, Hunting Group set to "1"
FXS Port #4: SIP UserID and Authenticate ID entered, Hunting group set to "Active"
FXS Port #5: SIP UserID and Authenticate ID left blank, Hunting Group set to "4"
FXS Port #6: SIP UserID and Authenticate ID left blank, Hunting Group set to "4"
FXS Port #7: SIP UserID and Authenticate ID entered, Hunting group set to "Active"
FXS Port #8: SIP UserID and Authenticate ID left blank, Hunting Group set to "7"
…
Hunting Group 1 contains ports 1, 2, 3. Hunting Group 4 contains ports 4, 5, 6.
Hunting Group 7 contains ports 7, 8.
Please be aware, the choice of 1 for ports 2 and 3, the choice of 4 for ports 5 and 6, the choice 7 for port
8 is required to indicate that the SIP account tied to port marked as “Active” will be used for all members
