It does matter - you need to configure your PM3 to match the way they
provision your line. We have 3 PRIs out of a BellSouth 5ESS: the first
two are provisioned in "Custom" mode (set switch 5ess) and the third is
provisioned in "National" mode (set switch ni-2). The BellSouth switch
tech couldn't tell me why I had 3 PRIs from the same switch in a
huntgroup and the third was provisioned differently, but it is.
