Polycom Instant Messages
Is it possible to use the instant messaging feature of Polycom phones in Asterisk? At the moment I’m seeing this in the SIP messaging when I try to send one from a Polycom 450.
<--- SIP read from UDP:
INVITE sip:0100@
Via: SIP/2.0/UDP
From: “Michael”

Asterisk does not understand or support an SDP media type of ‘message’.
Both chan_pjsip and chan_sip can support SIP MESSAGE requests, received both in dialog and out of dialog. In addition, chan_sip will handle media types of ‘text’ for real-time text received in the RTP stream.
I didn’t know that instant messaging was a feature with the Polycom’s. Do you have any documentation, how-to’s, etc. that you can point me to? That would be just way too cool. Thanks;

Yeah, I found the information on how to enable it here:
http://support.polycom.com/global/documents/support/setup_maintenance/products/voice/uc_ag_4_0_5.pdf
It’s on page 117 (or page 205 according to Adobe).
It gives you an extra option in Messaging that lets you send and receive messages.
