Howdy All, They say opinions are like belly buttons, everybody has one. (that's the "clean" version of the saying). So I'm asking for yours. I hope you see it as a fun exercise. I'm designing a phone system from the ground up. Will be about 1000-1300 seats mixed 80/20 VoIP/Analog. 58-acre

Thanks for the response. You gave me some ideas I didn't think of such as sending a text message to the on-call security person's cell phone. However, while I know I can get the 911 call to call other phones, I also need location data. I know there are ways to do it, but I don't have the kung-f

2012-06-09 Thread Nunya Biznatch
Can you set up asterisk so when a 911 call is placed, in addition to the call out to the PSAP, it also alerts multiple other phones on the switch and will display detailed information. Such as alerting a receptionist or security guard there is a 911 call elsewhere in the building and the locati

u might consider using DECT phones from Snom instead of std 802.11 based wifi phones. Giving QoS on wifi is a big pain. Hope that helps, Regards, Mitul Limbani Enterux Solutions On May 6, 2012 11:34 PM, "Nunya Biznatch" <mailto:aster...@ihearbanjos.com>> wrote: I'm abou
