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

[Lacy Moore - Aspendora]

You also have to make sure that on the web config for Grandstream that you
allow it to receive auto-answer (or something to that effect).

Ok, actually it's under the settings for the Lines and is called: *Allow
Auto Answer by Call-Info: *
**
Make sure Yes is selected here.

You can use what Barry has below for paging (or rather intercom) to a single
phone.  For actual paging (i.e., several phones), use the Page command (show
application page for options from the CLI). On paging, I would recommend
this: *Turn off speaker on remote disconnect:  *be set to Yes as well.

This works fine for me on firmware 1.1.1.9.
