Why each option
In Cisco CME, the 'button' command under an ephone assigns a directory number to a physical button using the syntax 'button <position>:<directory-number>'.
The syntax 'button 12:3:1000' incorrectly prepends the ephone tag (12) as a parameter - the ephone number is already implied by being inside the ephone 12 configuration block and is not part of the button command.
The syntax 'button 3:1000' correctly maps directory number 1000 to the third physical line button on ephone 12. This command is entered in the ephone 12 configuration context, where the first value specifies the button position and the second specifies the directory number to assign.
'button 3:5' references the ephone-dn tag number (5) rather than the actual directory number (1000), which is the required identifier in the button assignment command.
'button 5:3:12' reverses the parameter order and includes the ephone tag as a third argument, which is not valid syntax for the button command.
