Jimmy, To clarify, you want to configure the phones like this where p means phone and l means logical line:
Phone 1: P1l1 P1l2 P1l3 Phone 2: P2l1 P2l2 P2l3 Phone 3: P3l1 P3l2 P3l3 It sounds like (and looks like) you're dialing all of the extensions on one phone at the same time, which is why they're ringing and ringing. What you want to do is place the extensions for line 1 of each phone (p1l1,p2l1,p3l1) in the dial command to ring them simultaneously. asterisk will then fail through if none of the phones answer in time. -Dave From: asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Jimmy Ezell Sent: Tuesday, August 11, 2009 3:05 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Cisco 7960 Multiline phone Thanks for the help, I really appreciate the feedback. I tried ringing them all at the same time as you suggested: exten => workhours,1,Dial(SIP/incomming1&SIP/incomming2&SIP/incomming3&SIP/incomming4&SIP/incomming5) but it does very strange stuff: - I have to push the extension button twice to answer. - More then one extension shows off hook at the same time (Maybe 2 or 3 of the 5 will show off hook on the phone) - When I hang up the phone starts to ring again even though there is no caller I tried ringing them in order: exten => workhours,1,Dial(SIP/incomming1,5,r) exten => workhours,n,Dial(SIP/incomming2,5,r) exten => workhours,n,Dial(SIP/incomming3,5,r) exten => workhours,n,Dial(SIP/incomming4,5,r) exten => workhours,n,Dial(SIP/incomming5,5,r) exten => workhours,n,Macro(voicemail,100) Now I see the call march along each of the extensions until it gets to the end goes to voice mail. What I really want is for the call to go to only one of the unused lines and then fall straight through to voicemail after the timeout. Anyone have some thoughts on getting it to work that way? ________________________________ From: asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of David Gibbons Sent: Tuesday, August 11, 2009 10:05 AM To: 'Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion' Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Cisco 1760 Multiline phone Yes each extension needs to be configured separately in the cisco CNF file. I use a distinct extension on each phone (2 phones can't register to one 'extension' afaik) and ring them in order: 1,1,Dial(SIP/xx) 1,n,Dial(SIP/xx1) 1,n,Dial(SIP/xx2) Or ring them at the same time: 1,1,Dial(SIP/xx&SIP/xx1&SIP/xx2) Someone else may have better solution though. -Dave From: asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Jimmy Ezell Sent: Tuesday, August 11, 2009 12:18 PM To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Cisco 1760 Multiline phone Sorry I mean to say cisco 7960 phone. ________________________________ From: Jimmy Ezell Sent: Tuesday, August 11, 2009 9:15 AM To: 'asterisk-users@lists.digium.com' Subject: Cisco 1760 Multiline phone I have a cisco 1760 phone running sip and I need to configure for our receptionist so that she can answer calls on more then one extension. What is the easiest way to configure this so that incomming calls go to the next availble extension?
