Cisco Paging

[shah.a.jawad]

Hi friends!!

I am a CCVP, i would like to discuss about cisco Paging service.

firstly ->as i know, earlier cisco doesn't allow paging, it recommends informacast from single wire. now i came to know that cisco is providing paging service, is this true?

secondly -> if cisco is providing paging what are the requirements from where we have to download paging software or license.

what is the procedure to move further.integration procedure.

we have 70 cisco IP Phones

kindly help to find more information

Cisco Paging is basically Singlewire solution which is called Informacast basic paging. It comes free with CUCM but the limitation is that you can only have 50 phones in a paging group.

Dear George,

It was glad to see your reply on my post!

now i got a clear picture about cisco paging and informacast.

how can i proceed with basic paging service, as i have downloaded that software from cisco website.

For reference follow below .

Bootable-CiscoPagingServer_9.1.1.ova

https://software.cisco.com/download/release.html?mdfid=284724367&softwareid=282074295&release=9.1.1&relind=AVAILABLE&rellifecycle=&reltype=latest&i=rm

will this software work for paging with 50 Cisco IP Phones.

secondly , how can i start the configurations of paging server.

we have be6000 and cucm 10.x and cisco IP phones

On free mode,yes, 50 phones.

there are integration guides on cisco.com, you need to review them for the configuration steps
