One more Polycom IP601 question please (sorry for the long intro here
to document) ...
In order to closely approximate the behavior of the previous telephone
system that many of the users are familiar with, I have set up call
parking like this:
- features.conf [general] section contains:
parkext => ** ; What extension to dial to park
parkpos => 10-11 ; What extensions to park calls on.
context => parkedcalls ; Which context parked calls are in
parkcall => ** ; Park call (one step parking) - put
Kk in Dial options
- extensions.conf dialing context contains:
include => parkedcalls
exten => 10,hint,park:10 at parkedcalls
exten => 11,hint,park:11 at parkedcalls
[..]
exten = _20[1-7],1,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN},30,Kk)
Two buttons on the phones show "Park 10" and "Park 11", and
flash
nicely when a call is parked there.
A typical phone specific file (mac)-directory.xml
(e.g.: 0004f123456-directory.xml) looks like:
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>
<directory>
<item_list>
<item><fn>Park
10</fn><ct>10</ct><sd>1</sd>
<dc/><ad>0</ad><ar>0</ar><bb>0</bb><bw>1</bw></item>
<item><fn>Park
11</fn><ct>11</ct><sd>2</sd>
<dc/><ad>0</ad><ar>0</ar><bb>0</bb><bw>1</bw></item>
[..]
</item_list>
</directory>
It works pretty well. A call is received and the recipient presses **
to autopark the call. The call is parked to the first available
parking slot (10) and the recipient hears "ten" and hangs up. The
"Park 10" LED flashes on the phone to indicate the parked call. The
person picking up the call presses the "Park 10" button and gets the
call.
But what I'd *really* like to do is to have the recipient push either
the "Park 10" or "Park 11" buttons to park the call to that
slot
(instead of **), and then the person picking up the call presses the
same button on their phone (which is flashing) to pick up the call.
Is this possible with Asterisk and these Polycom phones? (Asterisk
1.4.13, Polycom sip.cfg 2.1.2)
Thanks,
Alvin
