[Freeswitch-users] Is there an (Overhead) "Page" Application/Function?

[Chris Chen]

The simple solution is using Polycom SoundPoint IP phones running 4.x or
higher firmware.  Just use the built-in paging function, no single ip pbx
involved for the paging function at all.

(aka auto-answer) and they were amazed.  But, then HE said so is there a
number I can dial so I can make announcements to EVERYBODY on their
intercom?

there an app for that?”  The key features would be it sets auto-answer=true
and dials everyone ELSEs extension, but not the one dialing.  So, do I have
to have an extension for this “feature” with nested <conditions> for caller
id and bridge statements for each extension.  This will of course have to
be updated whenever an extension is added.  That’s not unreasonable for
this customer as there are out of rooms to put people in.

currently registered users (in this REALM) and built the bridge statement
dynamically, excluding the caller???  I would love to start learning more
of this type of scripting function.
