Polycom Phones 2.11.0.0 UC Provisioner for FreePBX 2.11

October 30th, 2013 No comments

The Polycom Phones module for FreePBX 2.11 allows for quick and easy provisioning of phones running the Polycom UC software.

Polycom BLF with Astersisk

March 6th, 2010 4 comments

They are two methods of setting up BLF on Polycom phones. The first gives you idle or inuse status only. A ringing phone will show up with a solid inuse light. The good thing about this method is users can create BLF for extensions themselves. If this is all you need start by enabling the presence feature in the phone provisioning file. Read more…
