[asterisk-users] two SIP phones as one line

[Henry.L.Coleman]

The quirk of your old PBX is in fact exactly what happens when you put any
two analog phones on the same line. The easiest way to duplicate this is
to connect another analog phone to your ATA. Some analog phones can
indicate when the other is on the line and can put a call on hold locally.
