ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for processing calls to a directory number, shared by a multiple number of terminals, in which a switching system selects a preferred terminal for serving the call based on call answering activity. The switching system establishes a connection to the preferred terminal. This system connection is for use in answering the call at the preferred terminal. Although the system connection is established to the preferred terminal, all the terminals sharing the directory number are enabled to answer the call. The arrangement dynamically selects the preferred terminal rather than establishing an initial system connection to only a statically defined terminal.
