Response 486 "Busy Here"

I am sure this issue is a quite common one. However, I have browsed thru the forum, I couldn’t find the exact same one with what I have with mine.

Here is the message I got when I tried to call the extension:

When I do “sip show peers” :

I am not quite sure why that extension always returned “Busy Here”. Probably it’s a very simple solution. However, I have been looking thru this for a few days and I still couldn’t the solution. Thanks!

You mean the device. The obvious reason would be that it is off hook.

Thanks David,

However, I can make an outbound call from the phone. I assume it’s not off hook, isn’t it?

It’s probably in some sort of “do not disturb” state.

Thanks David. I will look into it :smile:
