Hello spyder13337,

Using a BroadSoft server will as an example allow you to long press and hold the BLF / Busy Lamp Field:

It does not matter if they are assigned to the main phone or the expansion module.

This feature depends what kind of information about the call the server sends to the phone so not knowing what server you are utilizing it is hard to answer you.

the solution would not work since we have a differenet server for for phone provisioning and we general work with the Ploycom Classic phone not the VVX

Hello spyder13337,

Yet again you did not answer my question.

What kind of phone and what kind of software version are you using this on your yet unknown SIP switch with ?
