I know this isn't really an answer to your question. But External paging systems are pretty affordable and they tie into Asterisk with either and FXS or FSO interface. I'm not sure if you're doing it for fun or for profit but you might find less headaches with an external system.
One of the issues one customer had with a Nortel BCM, and I'm not sure if this also applies to Asterisk systems is that the invites were sent sequentially and so some phones would only catch the latter part of the page. It just took a few or several seconds to setup all the sessions to 50+ phones and the receptionist wasn't waiting that long. I don't even know if she got an indication that the channel was ready for her to page. On 5/12/06, Tony Davis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Anyone have any luck in setting up multi-device paging? I know it is dependent on the phone being used and I have quite a few that apparently support it (SNOM 320, Polycom 601). I have tried some of the suggestions on the wiki and boards without any luck.
