Page a Group of Phones (Multicast Paging)
Your administrator can configure your phone as a part of a paging group. In a paging group, your phone can
automatically answer pages from other Multiplatform phones in the phone system. Each paging group has a
unique number associated with it. Your administrator gives you the configured paging group numbers. When
your phone is paged, you hear three short beeps. The phone establishes one-way audio between you and the
phone that called you. You do not have to accept the page.
Procedure
Dial the number of the paging group.

Call Center Features

Your administrator configures your phone as a call center phone.
Your administrator can enable your phone with Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) features. This phone acts
as a call center agent's phone and can be used to trace a customer call, to escalate any customer call to a
supervisor in emergency, to categorize contact numbers using disposition codes, and to view customer call
details.
Your phone can have ACD status as:
• Sign in
• Sign out
• Available
• Unavailable
• Wrap-up
The initial ACD status is controlled by your administrator in two ways:
• The last local status can be restored as the ACD initial status when the phone boots up, status is changed
• The ACD initial status can be obtained from the server.
