Configuring Groups
Ring Groups and Paging Groups
The AastraLink Pro allows you to configure the following group types:
• Ring Group - All members that belong to a specific Ring Group can receive
the same incoming calls.
• Paging Group - All members that belong to a specific Paging Group can
receive the same incoming page.
AastraLink Pro supports the ability for the Administrator to choose a subset of IP
phone extensions or FXS extension which operate together as a group. Groups
may be associated with unique configuration for incoming call routing, and have
their own voicemail and 'virtual extension' number, which is entirely separate
from the extension number of the users IP phone.
Each IP phone may be a member of zero or more groups, and can overlap between
multiple separate groups - for example, groups may have different membership
lists, with or without any users common between two specific groups. The only
provisioning restriction is that each group must have at least one IP phone as a
member at all times.You can use your keypad on the phone to dial a specific
group.
For Paging Groups, a single phone can be a member of up to 4 paging groups
only, plus a system-wide “all active phones” group (660).
The following applies to the multiple paging group feature:
• Supports up to 9 paging groups total per AastraLink.
• Phones currently in a call have no barge-in (system-wide option)
• Intercom warning tone on/off for paging groups (system-wide option)
• Icom key can be used as a Paging key (system-wide option).
• Softkey can be used as a Paging key (per-user option)
• The Phone UI displays an Intercom/Paging screen if the phone has been
configured for a Paging Group.
