By default, if you set a BLF to monitor another extension, the Snom phone will react with a blinking or fixed red light if the extension is ringing or busy
If the monitored extension is idle, the BLF will just be off and not green, as many may expect
To change that and make it so that the BLF shows a fixed green light when the monitored extension is idle, you need to modify two parameters: led_on and led_green
Both those parameters are defined by a long list of status the phone can possibly be in (like ON IN_A_CALL CALLING IN_A_MEETING..)
To both parameters you need to add IDLE (so that the list will be something like IDLE ON IN_A_CALL CALLING IN_A_MEETING...)
That can be done of course via provisioning or uploading the configuration file, but it can also be done via the web interface as below
D1xx/D3xx/D7xx: to do this via the web interface please follow the instructions in the page "How to change phone settings via right-click in the Settings page"
D8xx: just head to the Maintenance->Settings List menu on the left, search for the led_on and led_green parameters and click on them, then modify them directly
