Mobility - One number to reach

Intercom a type of phone line, combines the functionality of a traditional line and a speed dial. With an intercom line, a user can call the intercom line of another user, which auto-answers to one-way audio whisper. The recipient can then acknowledge the whispered call and initiate a two-way intercom call. Users can use an intercom line to dial any other intercom line in the intercom partition, or you can preconfigure the line to target an intercom line outside the intercom partition.
The following are the steps to create
1. Create intercom partition- Intercom partition is already created in Call Manager.




2. Intercom calling Search Space: Intercom CSS already in Call manager, we are using INTERCOM 10 for the configuration.


3. Create INTERCOM Translation Pattern:

Please add the directory number of the user who uses Intercom. The details of the fields are
Intercom Translation Pattern Enter the intercom translation pattern, including numbers and wildcards (do not use spaces), in the Intercom Translation Pattern field. For example, for the NANP, enter 9.@ for typical local access or 8XXX for a typical private network numbering plan. Valid characters include the uppercase characters A, B, C, and D and \+, which represents the international escape character +. If you leave this field blank, you must select a partition from the Partition drop-down list box.
Note Ensure that the intercom translation pattern, which uses the chosen intercom partition, route filter, and numbering plan combination, is unique.
Check the route pattern/hunt pilot, translation pattern, directory number, call park number, call pickup number, or meet-me number if you receive a message that indicates duplicate entries. Alternatively, check the route plan report if you receive a message that indicates duplicate entries.
