The BLF feature on the IP phones allows a specific extension to be monitored for state changes. BLF
monitors the status (busy or idle) of extensions on the IP phone.
For example, a Supervisor configures BLFs on his phone for monitoring the status of a co-worker's phone
use (busy or idle). If the co-worker's phone is in an idle state, the BLF softkey on the Supervisor's phone
is green. If the co-worker's phone is ringing, the BLF softkey on the Supervisor's phone is yellow. If the
co-worker is on a call or when the co-worker picks up his phone to make a call, the BLF softkey on the
Supervisor's phone turns red, indicating that the worker's phone is in use and busy. Lastly, if the
co-worker's call is on hold, the BLF softkey on the Supervisor's phone displays the BLF hold icon. Addi-
tionally, the corresponding softkey LED illuminates to match the monitored user's state, either off (idle),
solid (busy), or fast flashing/slow flashing (ringing/on hold).
: You can also use a BLF-configured key to automatically dial the BLF-monitored extension. Contact
NOTE
your System Administrator for more information.
The following table provides the BLF states on the phone and the corresponding LED and icon behavior:
