Title: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Hint Priority for Polycom Phones
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.

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
