Is their a limit on how many phones can share a line? I have seen it set
as high as 30 but had a request for about 60.

testing goes beyond that, but is it really a good idea? try to avoid
having a single line shared in that many places if possible. testing
does not include cluster over wan, device reset recovery, etc.

Yes, I am trying to convince this group that there are better ways to set
this up such as hunt groups etc. But ultimately if that's what they want
I know it's feasible. these users are in ONE location but I wouldn't want
to be there when the phone rings......

until we get an easy way to mask people's numbers as pilots, i can see these types of requests continuing.

I have probably 7 times as many CSS's for internal call ID masking as I do
for any other purpose on the cluster - just so that certain departments can
mask their calling number as some arbitrary pilot number.. wish there was a
cleaner way to do it I agree.

I have a situation here with 60 appearances of a shared line. We have a
call box at the front door. The DN it is programmed to dial is on 60 out
of 78 devices. It gets fairly heavy use between 5:30 and 6:30 each
morning as people who don't have a key arrive early for work. It's also
handy for after hours courier pickup or food delivery, which are amongst
my favorite uses for it.

Quick update on this. I ended up deploying the broadcast line group per
your reasons/suggestion below. The one drawback here was adding a line to
each phone (they wanted it separate from their main line). I tried using
BAT to ADD LINES but couldn't get the upload to work.

All these phones had a line 1 and I wanted to add line 2(Broadcast Line).

1)I tried just adding Line 1 but it would say it already exists.
2) Then I tried supllying all the line one information as required and
adding line 2 and that wouldn't work.
3) I tried removing all of line 1 info and only having line 2 info but the
exported BAT would only have the MAC and nothing else.

Anyone done ADD LINES to existing phones before? What's the trick?

Carlos

A broadcast line group would cover that just as well without the shared
line processing dependencies & race conditions.
