<DIV>I may have to do something like that to be able to setup some way to
temporarily close our office. I haven't really found anything else that
would have a visual indicator that the system is on temp. closed mode. I
can manually set a database entry (which I already do), and I know I can add
an extension to set this, but neither of those visually alerts our
receptionist. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Right now, we still have a Cisco SCCP phone on the system. She hits
the DND button, which the SCCP driver updates the database of this, and that's
what I check.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I know this has come up several times, but so far, I haven't really seen
any really good solutions. My receptionist system will more than likely
be a Polycom IP601. I'm thinking of creating an extension that would be
used only for this purpose. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Any thoughts or ideas?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks!</DIV>
