I have an issue with call parking and hope there is some undocumented feature for this. ;-) We are replacing our legacy PBX with asterisk, but to save money over time (handsets and network), I am trying to maintain the use of our legacy PBX. Asterisk extensions can not use the call parking features (not usable over trunk cards) of the old PBX, so I have to get the old PBX to use asterisk's.

Does anyone know why the bt100 cannot park and pickup a parked call? attendant announces the call is parked at extension 701 but the call cannot be retrieved by any other phone. also, the bt100 constantly rings when the phone is hung up after parking. anyone experienced this? using the basic features.conf [general] parkext => 700 ; What ext. to dial to park parkpos =>

Hi all. I am trying following scenerio for call park & pickup. voice is flowing established between B & C, after call-pickup ( instead of A & B ). can anyone please clarify why it is happening like this, ( or ) do i need some more configuration for park&pickup ? A B

Hello, Recently we have been using asterisk 1.6 and everything worked ok, all our productions server are 1.6. Recently we have upgraded one to 1.8 and multiple parking call are not working, which worked pretty ok on asterisk 1.6. Are there any major changes in asterisk 1.8 related to park call and multiple parking lots. Bellow is my config from asterisk 1.6 which worked, I`ve tried this in 1.8

We're using Grandstream GXP-2000 with programmed buttons to the first 5 parking lot extensions. When a call is parked, whichever parking lot extension it's parked on lights up red. We've never used the "announce" part and I'm wondering if there's an option I can't seem to find to disable the announce so the transfer happens faster. Thanks for any help, Ken

Ok, a little patch that adds a little functionality to call parking. With that, you can pickup the older parked call, if many are in the parking lot. The default exten to do that is 750, but can be changed by setting "parkpick => exten" on parking.conf , like [general] parkext => 800 ; What ext. to dial to park parkpos => 801-820 ; What extensions to

Anyone having trouble parking calls? I haven't tried it in a while, but it seems to have stopped working. If I dial 700, I get a invalid extension. I have "include => parkedcalls" in the correct context, and I can dial 701, which tells me no call is parked there. Any ideas? Parking.conf is stock.

I am using Polycom 501s with asterisk 1.2.4. When transfering to call parking wih "#1" -> 700 the user is able to hear asterisk tell him what extension the call was parked on. However, when I press "transfer" -> blind -> 700 . The user is not able to hear what extension the call was parked on. It seems like the polycom is hanging up before asterisk is able to

I have the standard parking.conf but extension 700 doesn't show up in my dialplan.... Why? I can dial 701 which tells me that I don't have any calls parked there. 700 just gives me invalid extension noise.... Should I have extension 700 defined elsewhere? Thanks parking.conf [general] parkext =a 700 ; What ext. to dial to park parkpos => 701-705

Hi, Can anyone tell me if Asterisk sets some variable when doing a call parking (when someone presses an exten set in features.conf). In can't find this information on a wiki. Cheers ;) Andrew

Hi, I would like to use the new atxfer (native assisted transfer, see mantis item #3241) , but I've partially been able to make it work. I can receive a call and then having the caller hear MOH while talking with another extension (the one I want to transfer to), but then I can't make the caller and the trasferred talk hanging up or pressing any key combination I'm aware of. My

Hi! I tried to use Parking Calls I use Asterisk 13, but I can't park any calls and it returns me [Feb 3 16:56:11] WARNING[1693]: pbx.c:12543 ast_context_verify_includes: Context 'ramais' tries to include nonexistent context 'parkedcalls' What is the correct code for put in extensions.conf?

My company for various reasons has asked that I come up with a way to have previously parked calls be re-parked in the same parking slot. I have looked at setting up asterisk so that the receptionist chooses which slot to place a call, but I think there is an easier way. That is when I came up with the idea of "Sticky Park". Here is how it would work. A call would come in and

Hi list, I enabled the transfer function in my dialplan, but I may configure it wrong because sometime when I call a SIP extension number from one FXS port, the SIP side will hear word "transfer", I hear nothing, after that, the call conversation is fine.I'v had this problem for a long time, could not get clue where I configure it wrong. here is my related config part: sip.conf:

Has anyone managed to get multi-parking lot call parking working correctly? I've had several attempts at it, and never seem to be able to get it to go properly - (actually, at all): I've most recently done this with 1.6.1.x, and now 1.6.2.x, with no luck in either case. What I've been "trying" is the following: features.conf [general] parkext => 100 [featuremap]

Hi list, For months everything worked super here in our setup. This week I implemented some new idea in our webbased calendar system. I thought it would be nice to have an option that tells asterisk you are not available for calls during an appointment. For this to work I could no longer use the ringgroup setup: Dial(SIP/10&SIP/11&SIP/12,40,tr) So I thought, why not use the Local channel

Hi, I'm having problem with call parking. When I park call, either via transfer to xten or park digit sequence from features.conf, I hear the parking lot number read to me and the user gets transferred. However, MOH stops for the caller the moment user is transferred. The user can be retrieved by dialing the parked extension and voice resumes. If the parked user hangs up, the channel state

Hello, all. I'm having a deeply frustrating time getting multiple parking lots to work and am wondering what I am doing wrong. I am using Asterisk 1.6.1.1. I defined two separate parking lots in features.conf as follows: [parkinglot_a100] ; SSI context => a100-parking parkpos => 900-920 findslot => next [parkinglot_a10] ; EBC context => a10-parking parkpos => 800-820
