That is something we all want, but it doesn't work now unless you add
a third party software. I haven't seen anything that solves the issue,  
but have
a few ideas.

The question here is how should one asterisk be able to know anything  
about
devices it doesn't control? It's a pbx, not an artificial intelligence  
software.

There is work going on in the development group to make it possible
to apply a message bus between Asterisk servers so that Asterisk
servers can share call states. When that is up and running and tested,
it will be part of a future Asterisk release.

So the answer in short is "not possible today", "maybe tomorrow"
