Hello,
is there some way to make Asterisk light up a certain light on an IP-
phone ?
Like MWI, the message waiting indicator can light up if there is
voicemail.
Could this light, or even other lights (like BLF-buttons) be used to
give a
visual notification to the user ?
For example : if a certain value is set in the Mysql-DB and Asterisk
reads
out this value, can Asterisk react upon it inside the dialplan to make
a
light lit up ?
2nd example : if a certain extension is called, can we perform inside
the
dialplan an action that makes a light lit up on a Snom or Yealink IP-
phone ?
I don't know if all this is at all possible, but it doesn't harm asking
I
guess...
If BLF works, then maybe more things are possible in the same way. Just
thinking outside the box here.
Kind regards,
Jonas.
On snom and other phones it is easy...

8BLF.29_.26_Call_Pick-Up
Also look at SLA

I know how MWI and BLF works, that's not my question. I'm talking about
lighting up lights on the phone on other occasions, not related to MWI
or BLF. Check the examples I gave again.
Can Asterisk (through SIP or maybe another protocol) "control" lights on
an IP-phone like Snom, Yealink or other ?
Also : can we control SIP notify or SIP option packets inside the dialplan
?
Kind regards,
Jonas.

<stabbing> #1 I doubt it, read your phone documentation #2 using special
contexts and addSipHeader commands, perhaps?</stabbing>
So if the IP-phone lets me program to react a certain way upon the
presence of a custom SIP-header, then this could be implemented ? Humm..
maybe you're right.
You don't perhaps know which phone type/brand gives me that much freedom ?
Kind regards,
Jonas.
