One Number, many targets

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.

There is not a restriction on the number of incoming calls that a number will receive. We will try all available targets, and there are options to go to voicemail etc...
