This gives me an idea. Groups! Divide up your handsets into groups or departments and then page them in series. Give perhaps a 2 second delay between departments. That way you could hit a handful at a time and know that they are lit up. I'm just throwing them out there ;) Mark On 11/03/2010 0

The intercom parameter for the Dial application is different then the Page application. The former simply adds a sip header to tell certain phones to auto-answer on the speaker phone, and from Asterisk's perspective is no more intensive then a normal call. The Page application uses the MeetMe c

One of the things I have done that has helped greatly with my net5501 installs is to slim down and get rid of anything I do not need / use.. Astlinux by itself is pretty lean and mean!.. however asterisk itself still loads the full set of modules... I find I only need 31 modules loaded for my

Thanks, Kris. It seems to work with a good few more than that, but some simply never kick in. It doesn't seem adversely to affect the box otherwise. However, I'll try changing it down to one or two handsets per room, and see if that works better. Thanks again Tom > -Original Message- >

Tom, You can already view /var/log/messages (which includes dmesg/asterisk/syslog logs) in the GUI, as well as a plethora of other log and configuration files. Under the System Tab there is a 'View System Files' section where you can select the file you want to view. -James On 11/03/2010 11:4

Nedi, The PERSISTLOG variable controls whether logs are written to ramdisk or the flash. If PERSISTLOG=yes, then it creates (or uses the existing) /mnt/kd/log and symlinks /var/log to it. Normally /var lives in ram, so this brings it back onto the flash. If you don't have this variable set to
