similar to: How to enable call waiting on Sip Phones

I'm still trying to learn some parts of Asterisk, so sorry in advance for the dumb question! How do I set up an extension to dial out to the PSTN through my ZAP interfaces? I want the ability to have a ring group that will ring all of the phones in an office and then ring cell phones if nobody answers. I'm sure this is simple to do but I'm at a loss. I have tried the following

I can dial from 601 to a public number. The public number rings. I pickup and hear nothing, while on 601 it keeps ringing. (BTW, is it right to say "ringing" on the active phone?) The *CLI> doesn't show me anything useful: Executing Macro("SIP/601-8238", "dial-pstn|88097880|") in new stack Executing SetGlobalVar("SIP/601-8238",

I got two phones on an ATA-186 (601, 602) and two phones on the TDM22B (603, 604). I have two lines on the TDM22B. I cannot figure out some of the problems: 1. 601 dials via ZAP/3-1 to local phone number at PSTN: ringing pickup on PSTN (empty) still ringing in the phone set 601 2. call from PSTN back: 601 picks up ... everything works !!! No caller id shows up 3. For testing I have only one

Hi, Is it possible to set a variable for a context for all extensions? I haven't been able to find it. I want something like this in extensions.conf: [from-iaxfwd] exten => .,1,RING=r3 exten => 123456,1,Goto(from-pstn,s,1) [from-internal] exten => .,1,RING=r2 include => ext-local [ext-local] exten => 1,1,Dial(Zap/1,${LONGTIMEOUT}) exten =>

Hi, I'm using the macro below in extensions.conf for most of my outbound calls. One issue with my current configuration is that when I make an outbound call it doesn't properly detect that my PSTN line (Zap/1) is busy with another call and then overflow to my outbound IAX connections. I think the root cause is that DIALSTATUS gets reported as BUSY. The debug output is below. My desired

Hi I am in the process of move a company from pstn to an asterisk setup. They had 2 pstn lines - only really needed a max of 2 previously. Now I have installed a tdm410 to handle the cross over from pabx to voip handset. this has been done, the tdm is now just used to provide a backup pstn line - only used as a last resort for outgoing calls - as its shared with a fax line. I use 2 voip

Hi! Maybe I have just been looking on the wrong pages but there is a question that is very important for me. I already studied some Demo-Dialplans and made some basic experiences with Asterisk. But what I need to find out is how I can handle this. I am leaving my office and I want to tell asterisk to forward calls now to my mobile phone by just hitting a key (on my IP-Phone) or by using a

hi ppl, i'm using asterisk 1.2 because i'm making use of voiceone, but before i was using asterisk 1.4 and had the same problem, it concerns an italian voip/sip provider called eutelia/skypho, my problem is the following one: when i start my pbx my skypho account is working fine, meaning that e.g. incoming calls are shown in the asterisk CLI and caller and callee can hear each other when

Helo List, First I would like to apologize for my bad spelling as well as that I did not search the wiki first. I only have email access at the moment. I am having trouble setting both variables and global variables thru an extension. I am using Asterisk 1.2.4 with Ztdummy on CentOS 3.4 with an Xlite softphone.

Hi, I'm struggling to get busydetect to work. I'm using asterisk 1.2.1 and a digium TDM04B (4 port FXO) card. I've set busydetect=yes, busycount=6 and busypattern=300,200 in zapata.conf and i've modified zondata.c with a busy setting of 620+480, 300/200 which is the busysignal received from Korea Telecom. Asterisk isn't detecting the busy signal and doesn't hangup.

Hi there, I want to set up an extension set that acts different depending on the count of used lines. I have a EuroISDN E1 board with mISDN and I only want to offer 10 lines. Therefore I set up a global variables LINES in the general section of extensions.conf and instantiate it with 0. I a call is incoming I check the LINES variable wether is 10 or more. If so I make a call transfer. If not

Hi, I am trying to pass DIALSTATUS to a Macro so that i can set a variable when a call is placed (call is placed via a call file to another extension first).

I've seen alot of posts lately on Queue and Agent functionality, and alot of hacks to make them do different things that most call center managers want. In the sake of doing this one time, I'd like to develop a single list of request so we can consolidate a feature request for the Queue/Agent system. Here are the ones that I run into the most: 1. Queue should know the status of agents
