The EdgeMarc is shipped with five distinctive ring patterns (Ring-0 through Ring-4) that are available for use when ringing an analog phone on the FXS/phone port. The EdgeMarc automatically selects a ring pattern based on the number that is being called or the number that originated the call.

By default, the appliance is configured to use Ring-0 for all calls. You can assign different ring patterns based the types of rules listed in the following table.
