<html><head><style type='text/css'>p { margin: 0; }</style></head><body><div style='font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; color: #000000'>I'd probably set up two intercom lines on each phone, both set to auto-answer. Put them in a partition that no other line can access. Then build a PLAR scenario for each line that automatically dials the other intercom line using translations and the correct CSS. Obviously doesn't work in a 1-many scenario, but it might work for you.<br><br>---<br>Lelio Fulgenzi, B.A.<br>Senior Analyst (CCS) * University of Guelph * Guelph, Ontario N1G 2W1<br>(519) 824-4120 x56354 (519) 767-1060 FAX (JNHN)<br>^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^<br>"Bad grammar makes me [sic]" - Tshirt<br><br><br>----- Original Message -----<br>From: "Jonathan Madziarczyk" <JMad@cityofevanston.org><br>To: cisco-voip@puck.nether.net<br>Sent: Thursday, September 10, 2009 3:29:41 PM GMT -05:00 US/Canada Eastern<br>Subject: [cisco-voip] Intercom with 2-way talking?<br><br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;">I’m looking into options for a
manager/assistant scenario where the assistant can place a call to the manager
that goes to speakerphone with a “bill is on line 1” and the
assistant can hear “take a message” or “I’ll take the
call”, etc.</span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;"> </span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;">While I appreciate the security of the
Default Cisco intercom 1-way feature, it is limiting without the ability to
give feedback.</span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;"> </span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;">My next solution is to implement a second
line on the manager phone that auto-answers and program the assistant phone
with a speed dial button for that. Do I then have to take up another button on
each phone by doing the reverse if the manager wants to get a hold of the
secretary?</span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;">It seems like this should be much simpler
than it is…</span></font></p>
