The only documentation I could find for auto answering paging and intercoms on the SoundPoint 430 was this site:
http://www.aussievoip.com/wiki/freePBX-Paging

However, using these instructions:
You MUST provision the phone from a FTP server to load the Polycom config files, then edit sip.cfg, search for "alertInfo" and set "voIpProt.SIP.alertInfo.1.value" to equal "Ring Answer". Now reboot your phone to load the new config option.
for example:

Made it so the phone autoanswers, however it now autoanswers for conference calls and transfers. Is there a way to make the config so that only paging autoanswers?

thanks!

2.2 has good polycom support

Try trixbox 2.2 (should be released soon). The endpoint manager will autoconfigure your phone including auto-answer on pageing only.

First use the package manager to install the latest polycom phone firmware (firmware-polycom package)

Then create a config for you phone using the endpoint manager. Configure your phone to TFTP configs from your trixbox and you should be all set.
