[Asterisk-Users] Hint Priority for Polycom Phones

[gw at adcomcorp.com]

Hello Doug,
I assume you have subscribecontext set in sip.conf right?
 
Also, I have a 601/sidecar and have the hints working fine on the first
registration.  On my second server registration they are not yet coming
through.
 
I am not sure if I can use the hint on the first server registration,
and have the server point the hint to an iax connection, which is what I
have started to try doing.
 
Greg

Dang. I must be missing something then. I've modified the contacts
directory, set bw and bb, can see the buddy on the second appeareance,
have tried every imaginable combination of the hint command in
extensions.conf and nada! :( The buddy never updates to show busy/not
busy. I thought it was interesting too... in the Polycom admin guide it
says on page 51 "Notification when a change in monitored status will be
available in a subsequent release". That's for SIP version 1.6.x, dated
July 2005. Beats the heck out of me how it works when Polycom says it
doesn't!
 
Do you phones send SUBSCRIBE messages to Asterisk on boot? Do you see
anything if you do a 'sip show subscriptions' for the phone?
 
Doug

	Nope, this isn't needed... I have an IP600 which registers to
asterisk
	on button 1, another asterisk on button2, a third asterisk on
button 3
	and then has a buddy/hint/monitoring on buttons 4 and 5 which
are
	working against the first asterisk on button 1. Finally I have a
speed
	dial on button 6...
	
	Then again, I've not got this working on a polycom IP 300 as
yet...
	
	Regards,
	Adam
