page_zone.group.x.enable_external_page = VALIDVALUE

Description

Configure the paging group for either internal or external paging operations.

If enabled:

  • The paging group is set for external paging operation.
  • page_zone.group.x.multicast_address and page_zone.group.x.multicast_port must match the settings on external parties for paging to / receive from external parties.
  • Multicast paging from an external party to the configured IP address and port will reach all members of the paging group.
  • Paging initiated by any handset/deskset will reach both the configured members of the paging group and the external parties listening to the configured multicast IP address and port.

If disabled:

  • The paging group is set for internal paging operations.
  • page_zone.group.x.multicast_address and page_zone.group.x.multicast_port can be left blank to use default setting or can be configured with custom settings.
  • Multicast paging from the external party to the configured IP address and port will not be accepted by the M500.
  • By nature of multicast, external parties listening to the configured IP address and port can still hear paging initiated by a handset/deskset. To prevent this, configure the IP address and port to a different combination. 

Where x ranges from 1–6 (Paging group number).
