[VoiceOps] List URI BLF Config Unique?

Is the way Broadsoft implements Busy Lamp Field (BLF) with a list URI
unique only to Broadsoft? I believe I am talking about Enhance BLF.



In the configuration of BLF on a Polycom phone using Broadsoft there
is a Broadsoft
List URI field. The same is true with Yealink, Gigaset, Cisco, and other
phones.



Here is a configure guide for a Polycom 4.3.2 Busy Lamp Field Configuration

Here is the config guide for a Yealink with screenshots of what the
Broadsoft screens look like

On other platforms, freeswith for example, enhanced BLF is not configured
with a  list. Instead, each line you want to monitor, needs to be added in
the config file. The phone then has to be rebooted, and the new config file
has to be loaded.



Here is what the freeswitch wiki shows:



Enhanced BLF provides ringing indication and directed call pick-up
capability.

Once a productivity license has been installed, the BLF configuration can
be added to the phone1.cfg(resp. in a phone-specific settings file like
"${MAC}-settings.cfg).

The following should be configured at the phone's file (e.g. phone1.cfg or
*MAC-address*-settings.cfg):

<attendant attendant.reg="1" attendant.ringType="1"

 attendant.behaviors.display.spontaneousCallAppearances.normal="1"

attendant.behaviors.display.spontaneousCallAppearances.automata="1"

 attendant.behaviors.display.remoteCallerID.normal="1"

 attendant.behaviors.display.remoteCallerID.automata="1"

 attendant.resourceList.1.type="automata"

and for each user you want to watch:

attendant.resourceList.1.address="8000"
attendant.resourceList.1.label="FirstUserName"

attendant.resourceList.2.address="8002"
attendant.resourceList.2.label="SecondUserName"

/>
