Incoming call routing is configured on the Control Pages. Call Routing is based on setting the 'Target' - a number can have multiple targets, e.g., can be routed to a SIP phone as well as a mobile, and multiple other numbers. Indeed, you can also register multiple SIP phones against the same number, and calls will go to all the SIP phones that are registered. |

Note: '''Voicemail on mobiles.''' We have no way of telling the difference between external calls going to voicemail as opposed to getting answered.
