How do I check a device's current information?

Question

Upon clicking an extension on the Device Management page you will go to the Device Details page.  This page displays Device Information.  Device information is shown in the top half. The bottom half of the page contains information for the Device Line, BLFs (busy lamp field,) and Contacts for that device.  For any changes to be applied, the  button must be pressed and the phone rebooted.  If the phone is active, clicking  will reboot the phone.
 
 
Edit Device
Pressing  brings the user to the Update Device-Device Information page.  You can change the device’s Name, Model, MAC Address, Group, Address, Time Zone, Codec, Protocol, Transfer Type, and Message Waiting Tone.
Group
Displays the group to which the extension belongs.
MAC Address
The 16-digit string of characters that is normally found on the back of the phone.  This identifies the unique device.
Primary Extension
The 4-digit extension that has been associated to the device.
Transfer Type
Two transfer options are available; Blind or Consultative.  Blind transfer allows the device to transfer to another extension without first contacting the dialed party.  Consultative transfer requires the dialed extension to answer before the transfer can be completed.
Hotelling Type
 2 options are available; a hoteling phone is available for use/temporary assignment by other users.  Virtual hoteling type allows a user to sign into a virtual device that does not have a physical phone.
