Think of it like a BASIC file with "GO TO" commands
ftp://ftp.avaya.com/incoming/Up1cku9/tsoweb/46xxsettings/20210118/46xxsettings.txt
If they're H323 phones, you can set the group in the station form. If they're SIP, you have to set it in the phone or I think you might be able to in SMGR now depending what release you're on.
But unfortunately, it doesn't seem like you have the ability to stop them from adjusting the ringer entirely. There might be another way, but I haven't looked into it yet.
If you could, you'd put a SET AUDASYS line in the group 2 part of the file.
Code:
# GROUP_SETTINGS

##############################################################
##
## Parameter values can be set for specifically-designated groups of
## telephones by using IF statements based on the GROUP parameter.
##
## The value of GROUP can be set manually in a telephone by using the
## GROUP local craft procedure or, for H.323 telephones, it can be set
## remotely by CM based on the telephone's extension number.
## The default value of GROUP in each telephone is 0,
## and the maximum value is 999.
##
## To create a group of settings, use one of the templates below,
## or create others just like them.
