How can we have a particular external caller be automatically forwarded to a specific ring group when they dial extension 123? For example, if specifically caller A dials extension "123," I would like caller A to be redirected to ring group 1.

Could you please clarify how an external caller dials extension 123? For instance, is this accomplished through an IVR or another mechanism? Typically, external callers cannot directly dial internal extensions without additional steps, so this context will help us provide a more accurate answer to your question.

Yes, when calls come in, they're greeted by an IVR. This is when they are dialing the extension.
 
The best and easiest way is to create ring group 123 with the same destinations that ring group 1 has. Another option Is to create ext 123 and enable call forwarding on it to ring group 123
