What you are looking for is a "Busy Lamp Field" (BLF). This can usually be controlled by custom SIP headers (though naturally, every manufacturer's implementation is ever so slightly different). N.B. Be sure to *avoid* Digium phones if you want BLF functionality! Making use of this feature would require you to pollute your system by installing a toxic, binary-only module. -- AJS Note: Originating address only accepts e-mail from list!
