10.25 Multicast Paging
Multicast Paging allows you to easily and quickly broadcast instant audio announcements to users who are
listening to a specific multicast group on a specific channel.
The ALE Myriad Series phones support the following 25 channels:
1 to 25: Broadcasts are sent to channel 1 to 25.
The IP phones can only send and receive broadcasts to/from the listened channels. Other channels’
broadcasts will be ignored automatically by the IP phone.
10.25.1 Multicast Paging Group Configuration
The ALE Myriad Series phones support up to 25 groups for paging. You can assign multicast IP address with
a channel for each group, and specify a label to each group to identify the phones in the group, such as All,
Sales, or HR.
Tip: You can set a Program key as Multicast Paging key or Paging list key on the phone, which allows you to
send announcements to the phones with the pre-configured multicast address(es) on the specific channel(s).
