SV: SV: SV: [Asterisk-Users] Presence and IM?

[Bjørn Ove Kristiansen]

Hello again!

As said below, this was already tried. However, it doesn't work.

I should add that I've gotten the hint function to work through the
management interface, so the syntax should be right. But for presence it's
not fully compatible with SIP devices and software such as EyeBeam.

Asterisk does support the presence support in SIP, at least in CVS head. It
takes some fiddling to make it work. Below you'll find a link that will
hopefully help you. As for SIMPLE it's actually SIP's messaging protocol,
which Asterisk does not ... quite ... support.

s -> Details the hint priority, what it is - what it does and gives a link
to a scenario where a SNOM phone was used.

Please note that the source code mentioned on the "See Also" link is already
present in Asterisk. As well, the context where you put your hints needs to
be accessible to the SIP phone.
