chintankothari101991,
No problem. Some examples of multi-line phones are as per the below table. The list is a mix of SCCP and SIP phones. I'm sure there are many more, but these are the most common I've seen.
Phone Model |
Number of Lines |
Cisco 7821 |
2 Lines |
Cisco 7940G |
2 Lines |
Cisco 7960G |
6 Lines |
Cisco 7970 |
8 Lines |
As for the last bit, I'm sorry but I don't understand what you are asking. Do you wish to configure multiple extensions on one phone?
Thanks,
Luke

chintankothari101991,
Thanks for your post. These questions you have somewhat depend on what phone models you are using.
-
If they are multi-line phones (I.E, phones that have multiple line keys and can be assigned more than one extension) then yes you can assign multiple extensions to one phone and it will ring when each extension is called. Please note: A) If you have a single line phone, there is a work around we can use to direct calls from multiple extensions all to one particular phone however it is not best practice and is not a very graceful solution. B) Certain model phones can be assigned multiple extensions, but can still only have one single primary extension. This is the extension that is on line key 1 and the phone will dial out from this extension by default.
- Yes you can assign the same single extension to multiple phones. When the extension is dialled, it will ring all the phones it is assigned to will stop when one of them answers the call.
I hope that makes sense and is helpful.
Regards,
Luke

chintankothari101991,
There are a few ways to do this and it depends on how your system is setup as to which way it is done.
Do you use extension mobility? A good way to know whether you do or not... do people need to log their extension in/out of their phones or is it statically assigned?
Kind regards,
Luke

chintankothari101991,
Correct. If you go to Devices>Phones and find the phone in question by its name/MAC address, you'll be able to go in to the device settings and along the left hand side add a new "line" or "DN". Remember to save and click restart once completed.
I hope that helps.
Kind regards,
Luke Oxley
