CONFIGURABLE BEHAVIOR FOR INCOMING MULTICAST PAGING
DURING THE DIALING STATE
Starting with Release 4.0.0 SP1, the incoming intercom barge in setting is now applicable to
incoming multicast paging calls. If a user is in a dialing state with the Barge In feature enabled
and a multicast page is received by the phone, the phone will automatically switch focus to the
multicast page screen. If a user is in a dialing state with the Barge In feature disabled and a
multicast page is received by the phone, the phone will keep its focus on the dialing screen.
Administrators and users can configure the behavior of the phone in such scenarios by defining
the "sip intercom allow barge in" parameter as "0" (Disabled) or "1" (Enabled) in the
configuration files or through the "Allow Barge In" setting found in the Preferences > Incoming
Intercom Settings menu in the Mitel Web UI.

DESCRIPTION Enable or disables how the phone handles incoming intercom calls while
the phone is on an active call as well as how the phone handles multicast
paging calls while the phone is in a dialing state.
When you enable this parameter, an incoming intercom call takes
precedence over any active call, by placing the active call on hold and
automatically answering the intercom call. Also when enabled, for multicast
pages during a dialing state, the phone will automatically switch focus to the
multicast page screen.
When you disable this parameter and there is an active call, the phone
treats an incoming intercom call like a normal call and plays the call warning
tone. Also when disabled, for multicast pages during a dialing state, the
phone will keep its focus on the dialing screen.
