No, if you are dialing to a TN which is in use you get a BUSY, except on FXO signaled ports which are always considered ANSSWERED when the PBX finishes dialing.
If you are trying to dial out via a LINE which is in use, you would likely get a CONTESTION. -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Danny Nicholas Sent: Wednesday, April 18, 2012 12:12 PM To: 'Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion' Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] BUSY vs. CONGESTION If you are dialing out on an in-use line, you should get the Congested message. Of course you could put the CHANAVAIL command ahead of dial to avoid this. Question two - Goto is a straight jump, gotoif jumps on a condition. -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Joseph Sent: Friday, April 13, 2012 7:34 PM To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Subject: [asterisk-users] BUSY vs. CONGESTION I have two lines, fax & voice. I usually call out on fax line (to have voice line available) I need to set the dial line based on dial-status. When I try to call out on fax line and it is receiving a fax will I get a BUSY or CONGESTION signal? What is the difference in dial plan condition: "goto" and "gotoif" exten => 1,1,Dial(SIP/7780${EXTEN}@pstn-9998,60,tr) exten => 1,2,Goto(1-${DIALSTATUS},1) exten => 1-BUSY,1,Dial(SIP/9780${EXTEN}@pstn-4444,60,tr) exten => 1-CONGESTION,1,Dial(SIP/9780${EXTEN}@pstn-4444,60,tr) vs. exten => 1,1,Dial(SIP/7780${EXTEN}@pstn-9998,60,tr) exten => 1,n,GotoIf($["${DIALSTATUS}"="BUSY"]?line2) exten => 1,n,GotoIf($["${DIALSTATUS}"="CONGESTION"]?line2) exten => 1-n(line2),1,Dial(SIP/9780${EXTEN}@pstn-4444,60,tr) -- Joseph -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
