[Asterisk-Users] GXP-2000 and Shared Line Appearances

[Daniel Salama]

I have a client with 20 GXP-2000s. Everything seems to be working  
fine. However, after a couple of weeks of use, the client is having a  
hard time adjusting to the new IP based phone systems and only misses  
one feature from their old Lucent system.

That is, they had 8 analog lines before and all their old Lucent  
phones showed a button for each line. So, it was easy for anyone to  
say, pick up line 2 or anyone to see which lines were in use.

Is it possible to use the GXP-2000 line buttons or extension buttons  
to show the lines in use, shared by all phones. Since the client is  
purchasing 8 "virtual lines", I have them restricted in a call group  
and also with incoming and outgoing call limits. Is it possible for  
all the GXP-2000s to show that line 1 is in use, and so on?

Thanks,
Daniel
