Busy Lamp Field (BLF)
You can use BLF to monitor a specific line for status changes on the phone. For example, you
can configure a BLF key on the phone to monitor the status of a friend's line (busy or idle). The
BLF key icon illuminates solid red when the friend's line is in use. For more information, contact
your system administrator.
