[Asterisk-Users] SIP Phones-Receptionist Setup

Partner is not a PBX, it is a key system.

The Definity PBX does not directly provide key functionality.

I can't speak to Merlin, not having used it myself.

That said, Asterisk is a PBX like Definity, and should not support this. 
A FEP for Asterisk, that duplicates the functionality of a key system, 
should be developed, if it's in high enough demand. Like I said before, 
I am happy to spearhead the project development if anyone is interested.
