<div link="blue" vlink="purple" lang="EN-US"><div><p class="MsoNormal">Hi,</p><p class="MsoNormal"> </p><p class="MsoNormal">Is there ANY way for me to see the status of the Polycom DND buttons in the Asterisk hints? I`m using the BLF buttons to see the status of other people`s lines, and DND should logically be somehow reflected (I don`t care as much about Polycom showing the BLF button as DND, but I do care about Asterisk hints showing it in the CLI).</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p><p class="MsoNormal">Right now, a Polycom phone on DND shows up as being idle. Which is it, but it doesn’t help reception say “Sorry he`s not available right now”.</p><p class="MsoNormal"> </p><p class="MsoNormal">
I don’t mind paying a reasonable bounty for it, or working closely with anyone to make this feature available, but I`ve been asked this by many customers in the past and it’s starting to be one of those “why the heck not” question.</p>

This was rather disappointing as Poycoms redirect text messages to an Instant Messaging mailbox and do not keep them visible on screen.<br><br>Maybe, some king of XML magic would be a better mean to return current DND status to users.<br>
<br>Any suggestion ?<br><br>regards<br><br><br></div></div><br>
