Yes, I have managed to get everything working recently with Asterisk 1.8 
and Polycom devices (and Aastra, Panasonic, Snom, Digium, etc...)


For the Polycom's in particular, look for the attendant/ section in 
the Polycom admin manual. You will want to setup your resourceList 
options for the SLA configuration so it monitors correctly (which are 
really just BLF type keys on the Polycom that monitor a hint on Asterisk).


The hints on Asterisk are them controlled via the SLAtrunk() and 
SLAstation() applications in Asterisk.


I'll be updating the SLA section in the next version of Asterisk: The 
Definitive Guide (4th edition) to elaborate on SLA based on my testing 
and implementations over the last couple of months.


So here is what you need as a recap:

* registration line on Polycom
* attendant configuration for BLF keys
* hints in Asterisk that the attendant keys can monitor
* sla.conf configuration for trunks and stations
* usage of SLAtrunk() and SLAstation() applications to use the SLA 
lines, which also changes the device status (that is monitored by the 
device)

Unfortunately I am still a sitting duck.

 

Any old configs you can show me?

 

Its driving me insane.

 

I am trying to set it up in this fashion:

Everything is SIP based. I do not have ZAP/Dahdi/etc.

6 IP650 phones.

line keys 3,4,5,6 will be emulating the Key System with line keys 1 and 2 be 
set to have their extension.

A call comes in, it rings SLA_line 1 ( line key 3) on all phones. If I pick up, 
that line is now active on all phones. If another
call comes in, it goes to SLA_Line 2 ( line key 4 ). If I put SLA_line1 on 
hold, it shows on hold for all phones. A coworker then
picks up SLA_line1 and continues to the conversation from their phone.

I do not necessarily care if they can call out on the SLA_line(n)s since they 
will have line key 1 and 2 set to their personal
extension.

Correct - the sla.conf makes the line active the hint makes it accessible
by the phone.

Would those be the shared lines?

 

Continuing with the assumption they are, I need to set them up in stations
in the SLA.conf file?

Since you are doing all SIP, you would want something like this:

exten = 1000,hint,SIP/100

exten = 2000,hint,SIP/200

exten = 3000,hint,SIP/300

exten = 4000,hint,SIP/400

 

Then set up your lines to look for 1000@default, 2000@default, etc.

Unfortunately I am still a sitting duck.

 

Any old configs you can show me?

 

Its driving me insane.

 

I am trying to set it up in this fashion:

Everything is SIP based. I do not have ZAP/Dahdi/etc.

6 IP650 phones.

line keys 3,4,5,6 will be emulating the Key System with line keys 1 and 2 be
set to have their extension.

A call comes in, it rings SLA_line 1 ( line key 3) on all phones. If I pick
up, that line is now active on all phones. If another call comes in, it goes
to SLA_Line 2 ( line key 4 ). If I put SLA_line1 on hold, it shows on hold
for all phones. A coworker then picks up SLA_line1 and continues to the
conversation from their phone.

I do not necessarily care if they can call out on the SLA_line(n)s since
they will have line key 1 and 2 set to their personal extension.

I was able to do it with 1.4 and an IP501. You just get your hints set up
correctly and life should be good.  You set up the hints as contacts in the
directory.

Yes but I am not able to follow it to completion.

 

I think the guide is quite incomplete.

 

I am also trying to follow another guide which leaves things out.

 

I was hoping that someone has it working so they can tell me exactly what is
missing and needs to be done.

Has anyone been able to get SLA ( Shared Line Appearance ) to work with
Polycom phones.

 

I want to be able to emulate a key system but I cannot figure it out.

 

Everything I tried so far is just not working together.

 

Thanks,

2012-05-10 Thread eherr
Then on my polycom what are the configurations?

 

Is it with the line keys such as reg.1 be my extension with line key set to 2 
and reg.2 be 1000 ( SLA line 1 ) reg.3 = 200 ( SLA
line 2 )

 

Or is this set up in the bottom part of the configs under the attendant section?
