Nathan,

You really should take at look at the snom 220:

It will play nice with your other ciscos and do exactly what you need. -Mike

Hi all,

I am a way into development and testing of an Asterisk solution for our 
interoffice communication. We have chosen Cisco 79xx phones which I have 
configured up and have working happily on my test bench. We were also 
supplied 2 x 7914 Expansion modules, now from my research, I understand 
these are not supported by the SIP firmware but it is possible to get 
them working with the SCCP channel. My major stumbling block is that my 
manager would like to see the receptionist have a console from which 
he/she can see the current state of the local extensions (I understand 
this is available in various bits of software) as he would get if we 
went with a CM/E solution.

So my questions are:

1) Does the SCCS channel support the display of real time extension 
state information ?
2) Would having the reception phone SCCS (and the rest SIP) solve my 
problem based on the above being true ?
3) Is there are hardware based solution that will do what I am looking for ?
4) Should I give up and submit to the mighty Cisco beast ?


Regards,

Nathan Alberti.
