The default in 13 is "no" which still allows early media through. That
option has a complicated past.

Yes, because it's doing inband progress using a media stream.

It's not the default.

FreePBX may not use inband progress for that scenario, causing it to
send out of band ringing instead.

Asterisk does not have the concept of ring groups, this is a FreePBX
construct. Asterisk itself does allow the option to be set on an
individual basis for the entries in sip.conf.
