Configuring Paging for Multiple Groups
These tasks configure paging for multiple groups of phones in your network—for example—for
combining several departments like Marketing, Engineering, or Finance.
SUMMARY STEPS
1. ephone-dn dn-tag
2. number number
3. name name
4. paging [ip multicast-address port udp-port-number]
5. paging group paging ephone-dn tag-list, paging ephone-dn tag-list
DETAILED STEPS
Step 7
Router(config-ephone)# paging-dn
paging-dn number-tag {multicast |
unicast}
Sets audio paging directory number for each Cisco IP phone. The
paging extension number is configured using the existing
ephone-dn configuration number command.
The paging mechanism supports audio distribution using IP
multicast, replicated unicast, and a mixture of both (so that
multicast is used where possible, and allows unicast to specific
phones that cannot be reached through multicast).
Step 8
Repeat Steps 6 and 7 to add phones to the
paging group.
