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 and held
state. When the monitored user is idle, the corresponding softkey is green. When the monitored user's
phone is ringing, the corresponding softkey turns yellow. When the monitored user on an active call or is
attempting to make a call, the corresponding softkey turns red. Finally, when the monitored user's call is
on hold, the corresponding softkey displays the BLF/List hold icon.
