Sorry, that wasn’t very clear, was it!

It’s a 2921 gateway, with a load of ISDN circuits on it, connected to CUCM with MGCP, but also running CUBE. It’s accepting inbound SIP calls from our SIP provider that are then routed to the hunt pilot. Our SIP provider is queueing calls off-campus for us and dequeuing them to our hunt pilot.

Yeah, as mentioned above, we want to do the queuing off-campus but also be able to connect internal calls to the hunt pilot, bypassing the off-campus queue. I’d like to know if there is any prioritisation carried out by CUCM as to whether the internal or external call gets connected to the hunt pilot first once a station becomes available. I realise this is probably no different two callers ringing the same number simultaneously and it’s probably all down to timing as to who gets connected.

FWIW we’re upgrading to 10.5 later this year but after the period when I’ll be using this in anger.
