Detecting device from system (poll the port available?)

[thephonefox]

Hi guys,

Working on a project and inherited a question about the Aastra MX one TSW. All I need to know is if it is possible to Poll a port/ext to detect if it is equiped with a device/phoneset? If so, what information does the polling provide? We are in desparate need to find over 1K+ extensions that are unaccounted for. Finding out if there is a device associated with the extension would be a great help!

Thank you in advance!!

If your phones are of the digital system phone type, then you can spot the disconnected ones by using the command:
BLFDP:TYPE=KL1;
If you want to see the unregistrered IP phones, use IPEXPIR=ALL;

Analogue phones cannot be "seen" disconnected from the TTY terminal.

Thank you Doktor! Can you think of any other way to tell if there is a device connected to ports on the system? Upgrading firmware via the system or something along those lines?

Thank you again!

When you say the extensions are "unaccounted for" do you mean the licenses are used but you cannot see where? or?
What is the problem with using the method Doktor has already stated?

Hi Himdp,

Nothing wrong with it, I just wanted to be thorough. Licensing is not an issue, it is configured extension, so I am trying to make sure we account for everything.

Thanks!
