</div></div>I don't believe these is a way to change the label without rebooting the phone.<br>
<br>
However, changing the label is probably not really the right way to go about<br>
this. For example, I have created an Asterisk system for a call centre that uses<br>
hot desking with Polycom phones, and those phones then use the built in web<br>
browser with an auto-refresh rate that contacts a website (internal) that runs a<br>
PHP script that returns the currently logged in person.<br>
<br>
This is done via a database and using Asterisk realtime for the registrations so<br>
the information is available to the PHP script. There is likely a similar web<br>
browser in the Cisco and the Aastra that can use this same type of approach.<br>
<br>
