Hey, it appears as though Jabber does not yet support controlling all lines when controlling a deskphone with multiple lines - it will only "see" the first line. Ideally it should handle this the same as Jabbers multiline feature when using Jabber in soft phone mode (which works really well). Does anyone know if this feature will be added and if so, any ideas on time-frame?

Hi there
As of now (ver 12.6) , Multiline Support—Cisco Jabber introduces Multiline support for desktop clients. Multiline allows your users to perform various tasks using more than one configured line or phone number. You can configure up to 8 lines in softphone mode. When you enable multiline and your users access Cisco Jabber using a Mobile and Remote Access (MRA) deployment, only the primary line is supported.
Jabber doesn't currently support configuration of two lines with same number associated with different partitions.
To get the roadmap, I suggest you touch base with your SE/AM
Hope this Helps

Hi there
I suggest you should approach your Cisco AM/SE and not to violate the NDA as roadmaps cant be discussed on public forums.
Hope this Helps

Hi,
Just to make sure I am understanding the multiline correctly, Jabber multiline is only supported in softphone mode, when using with desk phone control you still only have control for your primary line and cannot answer or use any of your other lines on your desk phone?
Thanks

Hi there
Applies to Cisco Jabber desktop clients.
You can configure multiple phone lines for your users to perform daily Cisco Jabber tasks. You can add up to 8 phone lines per user. You can configure multiline for your users on Cisco Services Framework (CSF) device.
Multiline is supported on Cisco Unified Communications Manager release 11.5 SU3 and later. However, if you are using Cisco Unified Communications Manager release 11.5 SU3 and Cisco Unified Communications Manager release 12.0, you must manually install the Cisco Options Package (COP) file on all cluster node and restart Cisco Unified Communications Manager to enable multiline.
Select a preferred line for making calls.
View missed calls and voicemails.
Use call forwarding, transfers, and conference calls on all lines.
Far End Camera Control (FECC) and Binary Floor Control Protocol (BFCP)
Hunt groups
Call recording and silent monitoring
Shared line, dial rules, and directory lookup
Accessory manager
Call pickup
CTI control for the desk phone
Extend & Connect
Expressway for Mobile and Remote Access deployment
Hope this Helps

I believe 12.7 now allows for multi-line deskphone control.
Thanks,
