BLF showing CID of who remote extension is speaking with?

Hey all,

I’m fairly certain this is possible but I can’t test because a SIP phone capable of more than 1 line costs well… a few hundred to a few thousand bucks (Grandstreams with color displays are 2k+ ) and quite frankly I don’t wanna spend that much just to answer a friggin question:

If I have a multi-line SIP phone, like GXP2160 or any other multi-line phone, is it possible to create a BLF that shows not only when the person is on the phone, but the CID of who they are on the phone with?

Something like this: https://www.dropbox.com/s/d0mxnaugser6k4f/Phone%20Example.png?dl=0 (and yes, I know that is a SCCP phone [and flashing to SIP makes it crap])

I know with SCCP this is possible, but I’ve never actually tried it with SIP/asterisk/FreePBX.

Thanks!
