[Asterisk-Users] 7960 "multi-line" configuration

[Scott Henderson]

You can configure multiple button to use multiple extensions.  You do 
this in the phones configure file, here is a quick example.

In this example the phone is the receptionist for two companies and it 
also has an individual line appearance for the the receptionist DID 
line.  Keep in mind that if you configure the voice mail box in the 
sip.conf fill then you will see a voice mail indicator for each line as 
well.

You will need to create entries in the sip.conf file for each extension 
as well as dial plan entires in extensions.conf but then all should be well

# SIP Configuration Generic File
 
# Line 1
line1_name:  CRV_Reception
line1_authname: "crv_reception"
line1_password: "crv_reception"

# Line 2
line2_name: "KP_Reception"
line2_authname: "kp_reception"
line2_password: "kp_reception"

# Line 3
line3_name: "Colleen"
line3_authname: "colleen"
line3_password: "colleen"

# Line 4
line4_name: "Line 4"
line4_authname: "UNPROVISIONED"
line4_password: "UNPROVISIONED"

# Line 5
line5_name: "Line 5"
line5_authname: "UNPROVISIONED"
line5_password: "UNPROVISIONED"

# Line 6
line6_name:  "Line 6
line6_authname: "UNPROVISIONED"
