Appreciate the info. I was looking for this in the Cisco SIP admins guide for firmware 5.1 (running 4.4, which I understand is functionally equivalent except for the code signing bit). > The line labels are a little bit of a problem.

The cisco config > file: It took some time to figure this out, but I use the following for a 2 extension phone config: Phones .cnf file: phone_label : "Gavin Adams" line1_displayname : "4001" line1_name : 4001 line1_authname : 4001 line1_password : xxxx line2_displayname : "4011" line2_name : 4011 line2_authname : 4011 line2_password : xxxx which properly shows my name on the top line, and 4001 and 4011 for lines 1 & 2 (on the right hand side of the phone). The sip.conf entries are: ; Gavin Adams [4001] type=friend username=4001 secret=xxxx context=sip host=dynamic canreinvite=no nat=yes [EMAIL PROTECTED] callerid="Gavin Adams" <(404) 262-7321> [4011] type=friend username=4011 secret=xxxx context=sip host=dynamic canreinvite=no nat=yes [EMAIL PROTECTED] callerid="Gavin Adams" <(404) 262-7321> Martin @ Digium was able to help out with translating the last 4 digits on the DID to the internal extension (in this case, 4001). In extensions.conf, I use the following for these extensions: ; used to map 7321 to 4001 for extension to extension calls CALLID_7321="Gavin Adams" <4001> ; use caller id value from sip.conf to map to =text value when calling ; a local extension (i.e., not starting with _9 or other value [sip] exten => _X.,1,SetCallerid(${CALLID_${CALLERIDNUM:6}}) ; Callerid remapped to the 4 digit extension, now pass call ; to next context with the extension being called. exten => _X.,2,Goto,sip_old|${EXTEN}|1 [sip_old] ; Gavin Adams ; first line exten => 4001,1,Dial(SIP/4001,10) exten => 4001,2,Voicemail2([EMAIL PROTECTED]) ; if 1st line engaged, goto 2nd line and ring ; (user may wish to put 1st part on hold) exten => 4001,102,Goto(4011,1) ; second line exten => 4011,1,Dial(SIP/4011,10) ; if no answer, goto VM exten => 4011,2,Voicemail2([EMAIL PROTECTED]) ; if busy (both lines engaged), straight to VM exten => 4011,102,Voicemail2([EMAIL PROTECTED]) This mimics our current config. I've disables call waiting for the 7960's, but may play around with using that if it makes sense. Would save a line for other uses such as meeting rooms, etc. Especially important for the 7940's we have. Hopefully, this configuration may be of use to someone else.
