[asterisk-users] gpx2000 Busy Lamp Field

We are not having a problem in the BLF area, and we do qualify our remote
phones.  I don't know if "qualify" does any thing beyond pinging the
address, but perhaps it does carry a data payload too.

I seem to recall qualify being part of the problem.  I'm not qualifying any
extensions.  In addition, the BLF I'm doing is for parked lines not for SIP
extensions, so not sure if that's part of the problem either.

I do not recall seeing the notify messages you're asking about, but I
believe that's because of the two things mentioned above.

Out of shear curiosity, do you mind running "asterisk -rx "show hints" |
grep <your_exten>" 16 minutes after you unplugged your phone, as in my
example test below?

Also, in the * CLI or log, do you see a message such as:
 Extension Changed 4063[ext-local] new state XXX for Notify User 4062
right when your phone's registration expires?
or when "asterisk -rx "sip show peers" | grep <your_exten>" gives an UNKNOWN
status (if you use qualify for that SIP extension)?

I'm just wondering where is my Asterisk version (1.4.24) failing compared to
yours.

Thanks,

Vieri
