Using Telephones as Intercoms

Use this procedure to make communications quicker and easier for users who frequently call
each other. With the intercom feature, you can allow one user to call another user in a
predefined group just by pressing a couple of buttons. You can even administer a button that
always calls a predefined extension when pressed.
Instructions
Administering the intercom feature is a 2-step process. First, you create an intercom group and
assign extensions to it. Then, to allow group members to make intercom calls to each other, you
administer feature buttons on their telephones for automatic intercom, dial intercom, or both.
This section also provides instructions for allowing one user to pick up another user's intercom
calls.
In this example, we'll create intercom group 1 and add extensions 2010 to 2014.
1. Type add intercom-group 1. Press Enter.
The Intercom Group screen appears.
