But Asterisk doesn't send ANY notification regarding change of state (like
ringing) unless call-limit is 1. In my opinion, ringing status (and probably
several others) shouldn't take into consideration at what point a device is
considered as busy.
This worked fine in 1.4 (we skipped 1.6) and seems broken in 1.8. Busy-level is
1 in both configurations.
After some more investigation, I may have found a clue. When I type sip show
peer <peer>, the following values are reported:
With DB value 4 or 3 or 2 or 0:
Call limit : 0
With DB value 1:
Call limit : 2147483647
This doesn't look correct to me...

Not sure about this since I use the 10/11 branches and not 1.8, but I think
you need to use the deprecated call-limit for BLF and the new busylimit for the
other features you need.
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+config+sip.conf
Call-limit is the limit on the number of calls you can take and also sets a
device to BUSY. Since you want to be able to transfer calls, you need at least
two. But this did not set the phone to busy on one call. That's why we added
busy-limit that can be set to the level you want device states to signal busy,
but still give the ability to the phone to set up more calls.
counteronpeer is the same as limitonpeer, just a new name.

Subject: [asterisk-users] BLF and call-limit in 1.8
Hello
We have recently upgraded our internal PBX from 1.4 to 1.8. This made the
BLF lamps on our Polycom phones stop working. After a lot of googling and a lot
of testing, I have been unable to find a solution.
I did try to change the call-limit value from 4 to 1, and this actually
made BLF work (noone suggested this, and what documantation I can find states
that this option is deprecated). This change has other implications, however.
Call waiting stops working, queues don't offer calls if the user is in a
private call etc.
We have customers that require both BLF and call waiting at the same time.
We are running Asterisk 1.8.11-cert7
I've made the following additions to sip.conf [general]:
callcounter=yes
counteronpeer=yes (undocumented? Supposed to replace limitonpeers?)
(old relevant values, unchanged)
allowsubscribe=yes
subscribecontext=blf
notifyringing=yes
notifyhold=yes
limitonpeers=yes
I also tried may other suggestions I've found like placing the hints in the
same context as the extensions and removing subscribecontext.
Is there something I'm missing? Is something not working correctly?
Thanks in advance,
Pan
