A descriptive name for the group. This needs to be unique within your groups.
Group Extension
An optional internal extension for the group. This needs to be unique within the system.
CID Name Prepend
An optional string which will be pre-pended to any existing caller ID name string. If you want to overwrite the caller ID name use the % modifier. Example: the string %SALES will overwrite the caller ID name completely.
Ignore Call Forwarding
Ignores all SIP device controlled call forwarding requests. Examples include the use of the 'Forward' feature on a SIP phone.

Group Members
The members of the group (Users). If you need to ring a different extension which is not a user, select other extension... this can be any number/extension that can be dialed from a phone.
Dial Type
The dial type indicates how to ring a specific extension:
- Primary Channel rings only the primary channel of a User
- All Channels rings all user associated channels (see Users)
- Extension rings the user in the same way as if called from an other phone. This will take into account any End User Panel settings including voicemail, call forwarding, follow-me and other settings.
Upon Timeout
Which action to take once the application times out or invalid input has been entered. This setting is only applicable to Ring only group types.
