Despite what anyone may say about Fax over IP allegedly works for them, save yourself the trouble and make sure you take the POTS and ISDN approach. > What phones should I use to automatically configure them from a central > place via HTTP or FTP ? I know Polycom-phones offer this option. Most major phone vendors offer provisioning of this nature. > How can I implement intercom functionality ? Which phones have > auto-answer ? And how do I implement this in the Asterisk dialplan ?? Polycom supports this, and I am quite sure Snom does too. Perhaps some others. As far as how to implement it, that is manufacturer-specific. Look on voip-info.org for "Polycom" and "paging" if you want the Polycom-centric answer. For other phones, it will be different. -- Alex Balashov - Principal Evariste Systems LLC Tel : +1 678-954-0670 Direct : +1 678-954-0671 Web : http://www.evaristesys.com/ -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
