Re: [asterisk-users] Shared line appearance phones?
The docs as far as I can tell are not correct. E.g. Zaptel is required (because it seems that it uses MeetMe) but none of that is documented. So yes please do see if you can make the feature work and please post a working example config for a Polycom phone.

Re: [asterisk-users] Shared line appearance phones?
I hate to bring up an old thread, however, I'm implementing SLA as well. I've got SLA working, my tunk executes slatrunk(line1), and my polycom 650 phone rings on the SIP subscribed line (button 1) I'm assuming slatrunk sends the calls to the SIP/station1 SIP device, so the call will always appear on "button 1" on the end device? My question then is how does the receptionist or answering party know which line this came in on so they can, for example, overhead page and say "Fred, you have a call on line 1?" My next observation is on the execution of slatrunk() the call quits ringing, so the calling party gets dead air. Is that normal? I believe the call coming in on button 1 is hear to stay, part of the 'trickery' but if their is an easy way to know which line that call is from that would help, and secondly if slatrunk played a ringing tone till it saw a station join the bridge that could help. And perhaps I have everything misconfigured as well :) Thank you for all the asterisky things you do!

Ron McCarthy wrote: > Asterisk 1.4 im guessing? I did not know the Snom's worked with that, > Ill have to check it out then! Yes, Asterisk 1.4. Also, it has been a while since I've used this code with something other than a Polycom phone, but it should be ok. The way it is implemented in Asterisk is a bit interesting. It uses the existing device state support (hints, BLF) to manage the buttons for shared lines. Asterisk changes the state of these virtual "shared lines" to different states, and the light on the phone reflects the state (in use, ringing, on hold). So, in theory, any SIP phone that supports SUBSCRIBE/NOTIFY to monitor the state of an extension in Asterisk, it should work with the SLA applications. -- Russell Bryant Senior Software Engineer Open Source Team Lead Digium, Inc. ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Re: [asterisk-users] Shared line appearance phones?
Well we need a light on the phone to blink when a call is on "hold", but we want to pick it up from any phone, so its a BLF key/light tied to it. Maybe you can intergrate that with ques, I guess I need to look into that more, just have never heard of that being done! Thanks for the suggestion, Ill take a look.

[asterisk-users] Shared Line Appearance - Aastra 55i - Does it work?
Does anyone have Shared (bridged) Line Appearance working in Asterisk 1.4?
Specifically with the Aastra 55i.
Specifically, I am using the Aastra 55i with the expansion module.
We want to see if other handsets are being used. (BLF) Getting BLF to work
would be a great start. It sounds like setting up the hints properly will
achieve this. right? Not totally sure how this should be configured.
We also want bridged appearances. "Shared Line Appearance" in Asterisk 1.4.
It is my understanding that with a bridged appearance, the line would show
as busy if it is in use on another handset, right? Meaning that the BLF
would be irrelevant?

IIRC, the next sip draft addresses shared lines and I thought I remembered something on the list about support for it in the near future. I also thought that chan_sccp supported it with in asterisk. Am I loosing it here? Is there an implementation for shared line support in asterisk? I know that with hint I can "watch" line status... I just want to be able to pick up on an extension when ringing or jumping in on a call by punching the line. Suggestions?

[Asterisk-Users] shared line-appearance
shared line-appearance: "a visual indication on one phone that another phone is in use, such as a lighted button." I understand that SIP does not support a shared line appearance. I understand that MGCP as a protocol does support shared line appearances in its Business Phone Package (rfc3149), but that chan_mgcp does not support the Business package, and thus does not support shared line appearances. I understand that if I want it bad enough, I need to extend chan_mgcp to support it. The phone systems I am replacing all offer this feature, and users are used to it (Not to mention that any feature you take away instantly becomes their most valued feature that they _need_ to do their job). My question: How are others working without this? We have many instances where an assistant is to answer incoming calls and put them on hold until the supervisor has an opportunity to take the call (to keep the supervisor from putting their current call on hold to answer the second call and put it on hold). I can only assume that this situation comes up for other people as well. I considered using queues, but then the supervisor is not aware of the number of calls waiting for them. I think I have to look at mgcp, but was curious as to what others are doing.
