If you see no subscriptions, then the phones will not dispaly the state 
of the line at all.

In regards to still allowing you to dial when all lines are busy, do you 
have your phones set up to automatically dial when you go off-hook?  In 
this SLA setup, you should not allow any dialing on the phone before a 
call is made.  If the phone is taken off hook without pressing a 
specific line button, the phone should immediately dial the "station1" 
(or whatever the station is named) extension.  This will connect the 
station to the first available trunk if there is one, and then provide 
dialtone for making a call.
