I guess I should alter my statement on what I actually need as I think that this will be true of MOST poeple that want some sort of key system emulation. I dont necessarily need trunk-> line_button mapping. The real feature im looking for is to have the system push out that status of each line button to a group of phones(probably all phones) that line button1 should be marked as either in-use if you are on a call or if you hold a call pull...

I have a co-worker using the 6730i phones who is able to remotely make solid or blink the 8 BLF fields on this phone at different rates. He is currently doing this through a custom XML script (not sip) so he must know the IP addresses of the extensions through a mapping file. This might work for what you are talking about.

However, many of us feel trixbox does fit smaller business needs as well. Why? Because the alternative KSU's cost so much! Nortel, for example, charges license fees for just about every modern feature on their systems. Need another voicemail box? $100 please. Want voicemail to email?...

So I see the SLA conversation has spurted into life again. syadnom: Quote: ethans, are you planning on making this a freepbx thing or specifically trixbox? I am no longer using trixbox but am using freepbx. i would be in for $300 if I can run this on any freepbx platform ( and of coarse aastra implements your need in firmware). Yes, the plan was to make this a generic FreePBX module. I do all of my development on the AsteriskNOW platform....
