Description: This table contains Hunt Group definitions for the X.25 layer. A hunt group is a grouping of upper and lower SAPs (service access points) for the purpose of routing incoming switched virtual circuit calls. A SAP can belong to more than one hunt group at the same time.

Additions to this table are offline only. To determine the list of active Hunt Groups members, see the x25HuntGroupOperTable.

Any incoming call whose address is determined to be associated with a hunt group (via the routing table), is subjected to hunting. Hunting means that the incoming call is routed to the first member of the hunt group. If this member refuses the call, the next member is attempted, and so on. If all members of a hunt group refuse the call, the call is refused back to its source.

Enabling hunt group rotation (x25HuntGroupRotation) causes hunting to begin with a different hunt group member each time. For example, a group with three members would be hunted as follows: 123, 231, 312, 123. Members are identified by x25HGMember Index.

Hunt groups can only be used via a route entry, they cannot be used stand alone.
