similar to: Parking from external PBX

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.

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

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

Hi I am using Asterisk 1.2 and for the life of me, I am unable to transfer outbound calls (eg calls I initiate from sip extensions). When I press #, nothing happens. Inbound calls transfer fine, but only once per call. The problem happens: - With both software and hardware phones. - With calls going out through the ZAP channel and to internal SIP extensions. - After I have transferred an

>From discussions with the receptionist staff, this is what we need: X number of buttons for parking slots. These buttons should be lit when a call is parked there. When on a call, just pushing an unlit button will park the call. (The do not want to hit hold, transfer, etc.) Hitting Transfer and the button would most likely be OK. To pick up a call, they can push the parking slot button. The

I'm trying to implement parking with only one button to park and unpark a call. Scenario: Call is answered, I press the button (on a Cisco SPA504) to park the call, it comes to [from-office] context where the call is parked successfully (there is no parking lot number announcement though). To unpark, I press the same button, it comes to [from-office] context, and the call is picked

Hello, all. I'm having a nasty problem with call parking in Asterisk 1.6.1.1 that smells like a bug. When the call returns, it seems to be returning to a "|" delimited extension and failing. Here is the output from the console: [Jun 26 22:20:42] NOTICE[7168]: chan_sip.c:18160 handle_request_invite: Call from 'tkeeley' to extension '56' rejected because extension

Hello, I have enabled call parking and it works great. However, when the "hold time" hits the "parkingtime", the extension that parked the call is called back. The problem is, if that extension does not pickup the returning call, the call gets dropped. Is it possible to get Asterisk to automatically park the call again if the callback isn't answered? Quite

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

Hello, all. With the assistance of very helpful folks, our brand new multi-tenant setup seems to be working smoothly from start to finish with just a bump or two. The biggest is parking. Now that we got most kinks worked out, I'm a little more comfortable in trying to resolve this. There seem to be two problems: 1. Parking assigns parking spaces from the default group no matter

Eric Wrote: ----------- The trick is not to use options you don't understand. "show application dial" will show you what the t and T options are for. Most people use the transfer feature of their phone, rather than using the T/t hack on the Dial line. Sounds like you are using CVS-HEAD and so will have to configure stuff in /etc/asterisk/features.conf. /Snip/ Eric, Thanks for

We have a problem of no MoH when parking calls running asterisk 1.6.2.16.2. Also, the parked call never goes back to the parker. We have "comebacktoorigin = yes" and "parkingtime => 180" in features.conf Anybody know why this isn't working? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Now on to another problem that we've had as far as I know since the beginning of using Asterisk 9+ months ago. I've been trying very hard to knock this problem out but regardless of what I do, it's still there. So, the problem is, when a call is in the parking lot, it then times out after whatever time frame and dials the extension that put it on hold. After 60 seconds of ringing
