• sub—Use this keyword to identify the phones to be monitored). Its value and 
syntax is stationName@$PROXY, where system variable $PROXY contains the 
proxy server IP and port (e.g. 192.168.8.101:6060).
NOTE Unit/key LEDs will not light without the “sub” keyword. (Not required for 
speed dials.)
• usr or ext (optional)—Use one of these keywords to identify the specific users 
or extensions to be monitored. Its value and syntax is 
extensionNumber@$PROXY, where system variable $PROXY contains the 
proxy server IP and port (e.g. 192.168.8.101:6060). (The 
usr
 and 
ext
 keywords 
are interchangeable.) If the ext parameter is not used, all extensions on the 
phone are monitored.
• nme (optional)— Use this field with the Cisco SPA 9000 to identify any alias 
that has been assigned to the extension in the IP phone configuration.The nme 
parameter indicates the extension name, which in this case is the same as the 
station name. 
• vid (optional)— All LEDs on the Cisco SPA 500S use phone extensions that 
they are assigned to. By default, LEDs on the Cisco SPA 500S are assigned to 
the first configured extension on the connected phone. You can optionally 
assign LEDs to any other phone extensions using vid=keyword. Use this field to 
identify the phone extension to use with the monitored list specified by the 
sub= keyword, when more than one BLF monitored list is configured on the SIP 
proxy server. The possible values are 1 to 6, corresponding to each of the six 
extensions available on the phone. Only use the vid= keyword in the first entry 
assigned to each phone extension. Subsequent keys will use the same 
extension. See “Attendant Console Parameters” section on page 196.
