Maybe on the settings page for the page we can have an option for Alert-info or 
Call-Info. As this is the case for my phones as well.

Grandstream phones also need:
exten => s,2,SIPAddHeader(Call-Info: answer-after=0)

I posted a note about paging and intercom support a few days ago :: I've been 
using an *early* asterisk-gui 2.0 version from, I'd say, 2 months ago .

When I received the note back from Pari saying he had made a change, I updated 
and took a look - and found a whole panel dedicated to paging/intercom. At that 
point I felt a bit like a horse's hindquarters. Thanks guys,  I should have 
RTFC'ed before bothering the list.


That being said. I have another (hopefully better informed) question.  I have 
it working fine now, using the paging/intercom panel. I had to make one change 
to the standard macro being generated. I recognize that I could make the change 
in the java script that generates the standard macro ,but wonder if it would be 
better done more generally.

The following is the section from extensions.conf. Of the four contexts, the 
first I provided, and the last three were generated. In order for this to work 
properly, I needed to add the "@ext-paging" context to the macro-pagingintercom 
invocation in the [page_an_extension] and [pagegroups] contexts

My question is, would it be best for the GUI to prompt the user for the Page 
context (in this case the ext-paging context) - I don't think that the GUI 
should generate this context, because it will need to be meddled with. By 
asking the user to enter the Page context, it will also clue them as to the 
need for it.

[ext-paging]
; below works for snom phones... other phones may need flavor 2 (following)
exten => _XXX,1,Set(__SIPADDHEADER=Call-Info: Answer-After=0)
;exten = s,n,SIPAddHeader(Call-Info: <sip:${my-ip}>\;answer-after=0)
exten => _XXX,n,Set(__SIP_URI_OPTIONS=intercom=true)
exten => _XXX,n,Set(__ALERT_INFO=Ring Answer)
exten => _XXX,n,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN},20|pN)

[macro-pagingintercom]
exten = s,1,SIPAddHeader(Alert-Info: ${PAGING_HEADER})
exten = s,n,Page(${ARG1}|${ARG2})
exten = s,n,Hangup


[page_an_extension]
exten = _#XXX,1,Macro(pagingintercom|Local/${EXTEN:1...@ext-paging|d)

[pagegroups]
exten = 6400,1,Macro(pagingintercom|SIP/1...@ext-paging&SIP/1...@ext-paging|d)
