BLF/List Key
The BLF/List feature on the IP phones is specifically designed to support the BroadSoft BroadWorks Release 13 Busy
Lamp Field feature.
This feature allows the IP phone to subscribe to a list of monitored users defined through the BroadWorks web portal.
In addition to monitoring the idle and busy state, the BLF/List feature also supports the ringing state. When the moni-
tored user is idle, the corresponding softkey is green. When the monitored user’s phone is ringing, the corresponding
softkey turns yellow. Finally, when the monitored user on an active call or is attempting to make a call, the corresponding
softkey turns red. Additionally, the corresponding softkey LED illuminates to match the monitored user’s state, either off
(idle), flashing (ringing), or solid (busy).
Configuring a BLF/List Key Using the Aastra Web UI
If you set a key to use BLF/List, you must also enter a
BLF List URI
at
Operation > Softkeys and XML > Services
. The
BLF List
URI
is the name of the BLF list defined on the BroadSoft BroadWorks Busy Lamp field page for your particular user. For
example, sip:[email protected]. The value of the
BLF List URI
parameter must match the list name configured. Other-
wise, no values display on the 6867i screen and the feature is disabled.
Notes:
•
BLF/List functionality can only be programmed on the left softkeys.
•
For use with the BroadSoft BroadWorks Release 13 or higher platform only. Your System Administrator must have
BLF/List enabled on the BroadWorks call manager. Contact your System Administrator for more information.
Notes:
•
You can use a BLF/List-configured key to automatically dial out to the configured extension.
•
The BroadWorks BLF feature is not the same as the BroadWorks Shared Call Appearance (SCA) feature and does not
permit call control over the monitored extension.
