The paging configuration in Example 7-10 demonstrates the configuration of a multiple-
group paging system. Ephones 1 and 2 continue to use ephone-dn 80 as their dedicated
paging group. Ephones 3 and 4 use ephone-dn 81. This time, a third paging group enables
you to page both paging groups at once. This gives an organization the flexibility to page
specific departments or the company as a whole.

CME_Voice(config-ephone)# exit
CME_Voice(config)#
ephone 3
CME_Voice(config-ephone)#
paging-dn 81
CME_Voice(config-ephone)#
exit
CME_Voice(config)#
ephone 4
CME_Voice(config-ephone)#
paging-dn 81
With the configuration shown in Example 7-10, a call to DN 5555 pages ephones 1 and 2,
a call to DN 5556 pages ephones 3 and 4, and a call to DN 5557 pages all ephones. You do
not need to assign any ephones to paging-dn 82, because this ephone-dn represents a
group of both paging-dns 80 and 81.
Note:
CME allows you to list up to ten paging numbers using the
paging group
command.
If you choose to use CCP to configure paging, navigate to
Unified Communications >
Telephony Features > Paging Numbers
. Clicking the
Create
button allows you to define
numbers and associate phones, as shown in Figure 7-18. Think of this as the single-group
paging configuration.
CCP also allows the configuration of multiple-group paging. By navigating to
Unified
Communications > Telephony Features > Paging Groups
, you can create paging group
