This PBX supports various types of groups.

Trunk Group

CO lines can be grouped into trunk groups based on carrier, CO line type, etc. Several settings can be assigned on a trunk group basis. All CO lines belonging to a trunk group follow the programming for that trunk group.
→ 2.9.1 [3-1-1] Trunk Group—TRG Settings
→ [402] LCOT Trunk Group Number

Each CO line can belong to only one trunk group. CO lines are assigned to a trunk group based on their port numbers (for LCOT and PRI cards) or their channel numbers (for T1 cards).

Extension User Group

Extensions can be grouped into extension user groups. Extension user groups then compose the following groups:

a)	Tenant (→ 1.17.3 Tenant Service)
b)	Call Pickup Group (See below.)
c)	Paging Group (See below.)

Every extension must belong to one extension user group and cannot belong to more than one extension user group.
→ 2.9.3 [3-2] Extension Group
