asterisk users - Feb 2006 - queue behaviour

Hi folks,

need some help on queue behaviour.

What I'm trying to do is accepting a call from pstn, put it into a
queue, while callee is waiting contact some numbers till one responds,
then bridge the two calls.

What I can't manage is jump to next dialplan command soon after callee
enters the queue in order to call other numbers.

I also tried AGI and Asterisk Manager, with the same result.

I think I'd need some kind of multi-threading.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

_fangi_

I've no idea if this'll work in practice, but the theory seems sound:

1) Create some extensions in your dialplan which dial the numbers you want
the queue to try:
exten => 1000,1,Dial(<dialstring here>)
exten => 1001,1,Dial(<second dialstring here>)
etc.

2) Assign members to your queue as follows:
member => Local/1000@context
member => Local/1001@context
etc.

3) Set the queue to ringall or round robin as required.

4) let the list know whether it worked or not :-)

Regards,

Chris
