<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Can someone please help me understand a little
more about Group configuration ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I believe that Group Membership is configured
in the \conf\directory\default.xml file</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've done this and the caller groups seem to
work fine.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>However, each extension in the
\conf\directory\default directory, e.g., 111.xml also has an entry for
"callgroup"</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Can someone explain what the difference in
these two options is please ?</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR>The groups defined in conf/directory/default.xml correspond to the
"group" channel or group_call API as can be found in
conf/dialplan/default.xml, extensions 2000, 2001, and 2002.<BR><BR>Go to the
fs_cli and type this:<BR>group_call <A
href="mailto:sales@1.1.1.1">sales@1.1.1.1</A> (where 1.1.1.1 is your FS IP
addr)<BR>You'll see that it returns a nicely formatted multiple dialstring for
dialing everyone in the group.<BR><BR>These have nothing to do with the
"callgroup" variable that is defined on each user in the default directory.
That is just a variable - it isn't required and doesn't have to be used, but
it's available if you want it for some reason. (For example, it will show up
in XML CDRs for auth'd calls from the user.)<BR><BR>Bottom line: if you're
trying to dial multiple users (i.e. "group call") then just use the group
definitions in the directory and use either the group_call API (like in ext
2000) or use the "group" channel (like in ext 2001 and
2002).<BR><BR>-MC<BR></DIV></DIV><BR>
