Hi Steve;
If we give a look for the link
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/index.php?page=Asterisk+cmd+page
there are some topics not cleared to complete the
paging senario:
1) Why to use Set(_ALERT_INFO="RA")? And how can I
know what each device take?
2) Does the following work for Polycom:
SIPAddHeader(Call-Info:<sip:domain>\;answer-after=0)
3) Can I do paging without use Page and only by using
Dial (but I will set the previous paramters as
needed)?
4) Any configuration need to be done on the Meet Me
conference to have the Paging working fine?
Regards
Bilal
