The information in this document was created from the devices in a specific lab environment. All of the devices used in this document started with a cleared (default) configuration. If your network is live, ensure that you understand the potential impact of any command.

Configure

Step 1. Open the CMM web admin and Navigate to Spaces.

Step 2. Search for the desired space.

Step 3. Turn on Blast dial configuration and set the retries parameters as desired.

Step 4. Select Add contact in order to add the contacts to be called when the call is initiated.

Step 5. UAditionally you can use the Comma Separated Values (CSV) option to add multiple contacts.
