Hunt Groups are used to provide access to a single destination point with
multiple node-channels assigned to it. Hunt Groups can be created for Data
circuits. Three different search modes are available (Forward, Reverse, or
Pack).
Example: In an environment where many calls are placed to the
destination (gateway), but individual circuits may be busy, the Hunt
Group will search for and connect with the first available circuit.
From the Midas window, click Configuration Management and then Connection
Administration. Click on the Hunt Groups tab for the window to be displayed. This
window shows a list of the current Hunt Groups, and provides buttons to Add, Edit, and
Delete Hunt Groups.
Hunt Groups can only be deleted when no Directory Numbers are associated with
them, and all channels have been disabled and removed.
