Hunt Groups
This chapter describes Hunt Groups and how to use Hunt Group features.
UCD and ACD Hunt Groups
Hunt groups are groups of internal parties (agents) who share a common (hunt group)
extension number. Calls can either be placed to the hunt group (using the hunt group extension
number) or to a specific agent (using the agent’s extension number). Hunt groups are
programmed by the system administrator.
Hunt groups types are either “UCD” or “ACD.”
• UCD Hunt Groups: Uniform Call Distribution (UCD) agents do not log in to the hunt group
to receive calls.
• ACD Hunt Groups: Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) agents log in to the ACD hunt group
to receive calls. The system distributes calls to ACD hunt groups as follows:
o Agent IDs: Each agent is assigned an Agent ID number for logging in to the hunt group
(see the next section). Hunt group calls are distributed to logged-in agents according to
their Agent ID number instead of their extension number. Agents can log in to any ACD
hunt group endpoint.
o Extensions: Hunt group members do not use Agent IDs, and calls are distributed to
endpoints where the agents are logged in.
Hunt Groups
Logging in to ACD Hunt Groups
You must log in to an ACD hunt group to receive hunt group calls. To stop calls, you either log
out of the ACD hunt group or divert calls. See “Diverting Hunt Group Calls” on page 45.
Only one agent can be logged in to an endpoint.

Before assigning the speed-dial number to a
programmable button, you must store the number with
either a Station or System Speed-Dial code.
