asterisk users - Jan 2011 - end a call after a specific time period

Hello all,

I am trying to end a call after a specific time period for that reason i
have tried various options like using S, L in the dial command. But in vain.

Now i am thinking to end the call using the AMI... but i am unable to get
the current active channel.
. i.e SIP/NT000 when i ask for getchannel it return some thing like
this Channel=Local/99449070380109 at default-f08b,2

As i have to use this channel name for hangup... Could some one let me know
how to get channel name.... or any other way to end call..

Thanks in advance

Easy solution is to store the channel name in a variable for later
use, use ${CHANNEL} to get the channel name

Thank you very much for the prompt response.

I  also tried this i.e in beginning i used Noop(${CHANNEL}) to get channel
name but it display some thing like ("Local/99449051010033 at
default-8307,2"

But i was expecting some thing like SIP/NT000

I spend alot of time on it but still in vain

I believe absolute timeout will do that.

Thanks you @ Godson Gera , @Sherwood McGowan  , @ CF

Thank you for mentioning.

I have tried all the options (excluding AMI) but in vain.

Let me show you what happens....

When the call starts core show channels shows me

Channel              Location             State   Application(Data)
SIP/NTT00-00000000   99449046902115 at vicid Down    AppDial((Outgoing Line))
Local/99449046902115 99449046902115 at defau Up     
Dial(SIP/NTT00/449046902115||o
Local/99449046902115 8302 at default:2       Up      Playback(conf)


After a few seconds it shows

0*CLI> core show channels
Channel              Location             State   Application(Data)
SIP/NTT00-00000000   8302 at default:2       Up      Playback(conf)
1 active channel
1 active call


Now the conf file is not that long that it keeps on playing.

I dont know what else to use to end the call.
