For sip:
Add a line like this in your dialplan for every phone you
want to monitor:
exten => 6000,hint,SIP/6000

Then in the tftp config file for the phone add speeddials
for the 6000 extension (cant recal how it is done, there are
examples in the default file and on the wiki)
I found out you really have to define the speeddials in the
tftp files. speeddials configured with the phone menu or
webinterface dont give you the status of the monitored
phones.

For sccp:
Add a line like this in your dialplan for every phone you
want to monitor:
exten => 6000,hint,SCCP/6000

Then in the section for the monitoring phone in sccp.conf:
speeddial = 6000,name,6000 at internal
the name will show up on the screen of the 7960, and the
'internal' is the context where the phone to monitor is

Works like a charm on both asterisk 1.2 and trunk

Good luck
