Just reaching out as I am pulling my hair out with Cisco 7965 and Cisco 78x1s with Asterisk over here in the UK.
I am running Asterisk 18.17.1 which is the latest in the FreeBSD ports. I have run “make patch” for the port which expands to a working directory in the ports tree and applies patches for any FreeBSD anomalies, in which I have applied the patch found at https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/ASTERISK-13145. I confirmed that all of the chunks have applied OK. I have compiled that and it runs without issue, expect the BLF feature is still not working for me.
Brief excerpts from my configuration is as follows:
extensions.conf:
…
[phones]
…
exten => 601,hint,PJSIP/aabbccddeeff
same => 1, NoOp(Extension 601)
same => n,Dial(PJSIP/aabbccddeeff)
same => n,Hangup
…
pjsip.conf:

“core show hints” returns the correct status at all times. The phones are registering OK, and the phone with a button configured with featured=21 is currently acting as a speed dial only and not showing BLF. Have tried with a 7965, 7821 and a 7841.
Running “pjsip logger host a.b.c.d” (for mac address xxyyzzuuvvww), I can see events being sent to the extension (605) which has the button set up as above, and when two other phones (601,602) make a call between each other I get logged traffic. I noticed that the phone (605) is only responding to certain event messages it is being sent with an OK and seemingly ignored the others, but as I don’t have a working CM or CME to check against, I am a little in the dark as to which are the key messages.
Can any BLF warrior chime in and help me debug or provide any pointers to getting this working please?
Kr,
James.
