[Asterisk-Users] Polycom Buddies

[Nihal]

I've got two Polycom 500's that I'm playing with, and I want view the status of either phone, (busy/on the phone/etc.) from the other.

I've got this cute little  'Buddies' button, and I can add contacts to that. But the status doesnt actually update.

Do I need to setup realtime for asterisk? Can anyone point me to some documentation or give me some hints?

Thanks,
Nihal
