And yes, most phones have transfer buttons. (Sorry for double post) On 20 August 2013 09:29, Andrew Cassidy <andrew@cassidywebservices.co.uk>wrote:
SPA50x has both blind and attended transfer buttons and BLF can be configured. Set server type on the Attendant Console tab to the RFC one, and set up the line keys. The line keys are multipurpose and programmable on these phones and can either be used to select sip accounts, as quick dial/BLF/call-pickup, or to launch custom XML applications.
For the line key button settings you do:
func=sd+blf;sub=<user>@$PROXY
You can add in call pickup, too:
func=sd+blf+cp;sub=<user>@$PROXY
which when the monitored extension is ringing, pressing the button will dial **<user> (the user prepended with 2 asterisks)

Do most of these phones offer a 'transfer' button?
Do the Siemens/Gigaset Desk phones offer BLF that anyone has used?
What about the Cisco SPA50x ?
BLF is THE feature I need for the 2 phones. ( I haven't seen BLF on any of the softphones I played with.)
I also have a page for soft-phones started- heavily Linux centered. http://wiki.xtronics.com/index.php/Debian_Linux#Telephony_VoIP-_Video_chat
These links are mostly my learning notes - There may be bits people want to grab and stick in wiki.freeswitch.org

When a bureaucrat calls for accountability, it means he has found a way to game the system.
