[Asterisk-Users] Hinting

[Aaron Daniel]

The polycoms have a buddy feature where you can "watch" a buddy.  From 
what I can tell, it sends a subscribe to the server, and only works if 
you're hinting the phone.  That's what was suggested I do since I want to 
be able to tell if someone's on the phone, and I've watched the sip debug 
as it boots up and it does in fact send a subscribe to the server for the 
extensions I want to watch.  The server's not really doing anything with 
it though, so I'm kinda lost on how this is going to work.  Sip debug 
doesn't show asterisk sending any information to the phone after it 
subscribes.
