[asterisk-users] How to use Grandstream GX-2000 phones for paging

[Barry D. Hassler]

This isn't working for me either. I was about to ask this same question,
but discovered this recent thread.

I have the following set up in my extensions.conf file, as per
Granstream instructions:
[macro-page-grandstream]
exten => s,1,ChanIsAvail(${ARG1}|js);   j is for jump, s is for ANY call
exten => s,2,SIPAddHeader(Call-Info: answer-after=0)
exten -> s,3,Dial(${ARG1})
exten => s,4,NoOp();
exten => s,5,Hangup
exten => s,102,NoOp(102)        ; Channel not available
exten => s,103,Hangup

[intercoms]
exten => **2311,1,Macro(page-grandstream,SIP/2311)
exten => **2311,2,Hangup

And in my local context:
include => intercoms

When I dial **2311, I see the following debug output:
[Sep  8 15:24:37]     -- Starting simple switch on 'Zap/4-1'
[Sep  8 15:24:43]     -- Executing SetMusicOnHold("Zap/4-1", "default")
in new stack
[Sep  8 15:24:43]     -- Executing Goto("Zap/4-1", "intern-hcst-post|
**2311|1") in new stack
[Sep  8 15:24:43]     -- Goto (intern-hcst-post,**2311,1)
[Sep  8 15:24:43]     -- Executing Macro("Zap/4-1", "page-grandstream|
SIP/2311") in new stack
[Sep  8 15:24:43]     -- Executing ChanIsAvail("Zap/4-1", "SIP/2311|js")
in new stack
[Sep  8 15:24:43]     -- Executing SIPAddHeader("Zap/4-1", "Call-Info:
answer-after=0") in new stack
[Sep  8 15:24:43]     -- Executing Hangup("Zap/4-1", "") in new stack
[Sep  8 15:24:43]   == Spawn extension (intern-hcst-post, **2311, 2)
exited non-zero on 'Zap/4-1'
[Sep  8 15:24:43]     -- Hungup 'Zap/4-1'

Is this a problem with the SIPAddHEader that it is jumping immediately
to Hangup? I see NO SIP traffic as a result of this, and sip debug shows
nothing out of the ordinary. 

The BLF functions don't seem to be working either.

I'm running asterisk 1.2.9.1, and have the Granstream GXP2000 reports:
Software Version:    Program-- 1.1.0.16    Bootloader-- 1.1.0.1
