Hello guys !
I just installed a new client of mine who's used to use the function "Intercom" or "Page" to the whole company.
My VoIP server is on a modified Asterisk basis. The shortcut i did on the server for the Page to all of her extension is *399 that is going to page extensions 221, 222, 223, 224, 225, 226, 227, 228, 229, 230, 231, 232, 233, 234, 235, 236, 237, 238, 239, 240, 241, 242, 243, 244, 245, 246, 247, 248, 249 and 250 (this is the setup for the extension 213).
When i use the Line key type "Intercom" with value *399, all the phones do beep but no sounds come out of the internal speaker.
Is there a maximum number of extensions that can be paged at the same time ?
I've got:
- 28x T23G on the firmware 44.80.0.95
- 3x T46G on the firmware 28.80.0.95
- 2x W52P on 25.73.0.40
Thanks for your time.
For that large a setup I would look into using Multicast Paging instead of the Asterisk Page function. Multicast will allow the page to be picked up by all phones at almost the same time, and reduces network usage/delays because it only requires a single set of packets to flow rather than having Asterisk duplicate them out to each individual phone.
Yealink has a bunch of info describing how to setup Multicast directly on their phones, it's quite easy to do.
Cool !
Thanks a lot for the answer !

In case anyone wondering the autoprovision format, here it is.
Here's the multicast section.
Code:
multicast.codec = PCMU
multicast.listen_address.1.label = Intercom
multicast.listen_address.1.ip_address = 224.0.0.1:10000
multicast.receive_priority.priority = 0
multicast.receive_priority.enable = 0
Here's the DSSKey shortcut placed on the key #3.
Code:
linekey.3.type = 24
linekey.3.line = 0
linekey.3.value = 224.0.0.1:10000
linekey.3.label = Intercom
***Optional***
Here's the part to prevent a page to interrupt an active call.
Code:
features.intercom.allow=1
features.intercom.barge = 0
I just hope I saved some time to people looking for that.

Hi Travis,
I am trying to set up the multicast on our T41P phones and I am having some trouble. I have followed the steps in the guide but when I try to use the feature I get a called failed or nothing. Not sure what to do.
