If the phones were directly connected to Asterisk this would not be a
problem. All the phones are proprietary Nortel digital phones that
connect directly to the Nortel box. I need something like SMDI to
signal the PBX to turn the MWI light on. Unfortunately all the
documentation I have read says that the Option 11 does not support SMDI
and I cannot find any other way of telling it to turn on the light when
there is voicemail waiting in Asterisk. -- Telecomunicaciones Abiertas de México S.A. de C.V. Carlos Chávez Prats Director de Tecnología +52-55-91169161 ext 2001
