Terry,
You need to take advantage of the Local channel. For example: exten => 1,1,Dial(Local/aastra@dring&Local/polycom@dring&Local/other-phones@dring) [dring] exten => aastra,1,SIPAddHeader(Alert-Info: info=<Bellcore-dr2>)exten => aastra,2,Dial(SIP/3000,30,mAPt) exten => polycom,1,SIPAddHeader(Alert-Info: info=<Bellcore-dr4>) exten => polycom,2,Dial(SIP/3001,30,mAPt) exten => other-phones,1,SIPAddHeader(Alert-Info: info=<Bellcore-dr5>) exten => other-phones,2,Dial(SIP/3002,30,mAPt) As you can see, aastra, polycom, and other-phones can have their own different Bellcore distinctive ring and yet be call simultaneously. -Bruce > Date: Tue, 22 Feb 2011 22:01:32 -0500 > From: [email protected] > To: [email protected] > CC: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [on-asterisk] Distinctive Ring and Ring groups, or queues > > Hi Simon, > > Thanks for your response! > > It appears that "Bellcore-drx", where x={1-5}, is predefined somewhere... but > where?
