incoming call opens speaker on all phones

[briankelly63]

Could someone briefly describe the direction or approach that I might take to do the following:
I have piaf set up in a test bed configuration... one aastra 571 and one callcentric voip account. Upon calling into the voip line from somewhere in the world I'd like the system to answer the call and open the speakers on all phones IF a certain callerid is detected....

Any guidance would be appreciated.

just tried this with a couple of Linksys phones (but the principles should be the same for all IP phones where intercom/page works)

1. get intercom/page group working on the Aastras if you haven't done already
2. set a page group for all your Aastra sets
3. in freepbx create a Misc Destination pointing to the feature code for the page group
4. Create two inbound routes for your DID.
Set the one with any CID to do whatever behaviour you wish for other calls (such as ring the phones normally, go to IVR, or whatever else you wish to happen)
5. Set the other to have your DID but also to contain caller ID you want to trigger all the speakers. Set this routes destination to the Misc Destination that points to the page group.
