Guys,
After connecting to the * manager, each and every event is sent to the
connected client, right?

This means that if I install a client on each PC for monitoring incoming
calls, or pretty much anything else, it will create a lot of excess
traffic on my LAN.

Can I connect to the manager and tell it to send only events regarding
specific extension(s) my way?

I'd like to provide a popup display say "incoming call from CALLERID"
and provide a way for the callee to divert it to voicemail or something
like that.

Thanks

Another option would be to write a manager proxy (look on the wiki - several simple examples already exist) that only sends particular events on to clients who request them. Basically have a script connect to * one time. Clients then connect to this script instead of * and tell the script what messages they want to know about. At this point the script handles the end clients - not * - a double benefit (less net traffic and less work for *).
