<p class=MsoNormal>Hello,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I've had Asterisk and Polycom phones work perfectly with
hints for the last 6 months. Suddently, I realize they've stopped working
in the last few days. I haven't changed the configuration in any way.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I have hints setup (CLI "show hints" does show the
hints, and they seem correct). But when I do dial using one of the SIP
registrations, I don't see those hints being changed in the CLI (at verbose)
like I used to. My hints keep on showing "idle", even though I
am making a call.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Making this even weirder, if a phone falls off the grid I do
get the subscription become "unavailable". It's just the
"on call" hint that does not seem to work. So it seems not to
be a firewall/routing issue.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I don't think it's the phones, since Asterisk doesn't seem
to update it's internal hint (show hints command) when I dial out or get a
call.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Using Asterisk 1.4.22 and Polycom 3.1.1 firmware (latest). And
I restarted asterisk just in case, no help.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Regards,<o:p></o:p></p>
