[Asterisk-Users] Polycom IP 600 status setting in Asterisk

[Michael Graves]

I love my Polycom IP600s. However, I'm not clean on how the status
setting on the phone impacts the behaviour of *. Anyone here have the
details?

When the phone is set to online and I'm on a call then * routes a
second incomming call to voicemail playing the busy message. If I
simply leave my desk and the phone remains online then voicemail plays
the unavailable message. I would have thought that unavailable (ie out
of office) was something reserved for when I set the phone to "away."

I guess this is what is meant be presence, something that I don't
completely understand.
