[Asterisk-Users] RE: line status

[Χαλβατζόγλου Κώστας]

There are software solutions you could refer to, software based, or hardware based.
Look at www.voip-info.org for both solutions available.
To give you a hint;

For Software based solution, you can try various managers available for asterisk (Windows and Linux based) in order to get line status.

For hardware based, you could use an ADSI compliant phone, with big LCD screen, enough to show the channel info you need. If you can find it with soft-keys (interactively communicate with Asterisk through ADSI messages) that would be the greatest.

I've inquired about this before, but it seeems to me that most business
class pbx systems allow the receptionist to see the status of all connected
lines at a glance from their phone ....

What are others doing to address this in the corporate environment ? If a
receptionist has something like a Cisco 7960 + 7914 combination, sure, then
he/she can transfer to any other extension via pre-programmed speed dial,
but what about the status of the line ?

Thanks,
