Re: [asterisk-biz] auto-answering an originated call, dialplan / manager interface problem

[Mueller, Alexander]

OK, as promised, here are the details of the solution.

The local phone which shall dial out is SIP/2000, and the external number to be 
called is 0123456789. The SIP/2000 will auto-answer, so that the user (having a 
headset on) will be able to make an outbound call without using the phone 
hardware.

The Action to be called from the AMI is:

Action: Originate
Channel: Local/*2...@originating
Context: originating
Exten: 00123456789
Priority: 1
CallerID: 2000
ActionID: ORIGINATE_464

The "*" is only a marker for the distinction inside the dialplan, to 
distinguish internal and external phone numbers.
The dialplan goes:

<...>
; Originating Calls
[originating]
exten => _0X.,1,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN:1...@sipgate-out)

exten => _*X.,1,Set(NST=${EXTEN:1})
exten => _*X.,n,SIPAddHeader(Call-Info: sip:\;answer-after=0)
exten => _*X.,n,Dial(SIP/${NST})
<...>

Where you can see the "*" to distinguish internal and external. I use 
"sipgate-out" as context for outbound calls.

This solution has no checking if SIP/2000 is busy or not, but when a user who 
"owns" the phone presses the button (and triggers the originate command), I 
think he knows why something went wrong if the phone is not ready.

Thanks everybody for the hints !

Re: [asterisk-biz] auto-answering an originated call, dialplan / manager interface problem

[Mueller, Alexander]

Thanks, I found the solution using the local/ way.

I didn't find it documented in the Asterisk book, whether the English one (van 
Meggelen), nor the german one (Wintermeyer/Kempgen).

But this link brought me to the solution: 
http://blogs.reucon.com/asterisk-java/2007/04/18/originate_using_asterisk_local_channels.html
 

Thanks to everyone helping me.

Later this day I will document the solution in detail here for others having 
the same problem

Alex

Instead of SIP/2000 you can define local/ex...@context and in that extension 
add SIP headers and perform any magic you want.

Re: [asterisk-biz] auto-answering an originated call, dialplan / manager interface problem

[Mueller, Alexander]

CS, thanks, both this ways I already went, but they don't solve the problem.

The originate way originates my call, but the agent has to press the 
acknowledge button on his phone, which shall not occur (the call shall be 
established without the agent needing to use the hardware phone). The dialplan 
is entered much too late by using this way, it's entered *after* the user has 
pressed a key on the phone (cancel or acknowledge).

Here's the event log coming from Asterisk (times inserted by my logging app).
At 17:37:19, the phone starts ringing, without the dialplan even being reached 
(SIPAddHeader!)
At 17:37:32, I acknowledge on the phone, then come into the dialplan, and can 
call SIPAddHeader, that's too late.

Once you get the handle of it, it ain't difficult:


AMI Example:

Action: Originate

(actually, asterisk will call this extension /channel first)

>>>CS, that's my problem, exactly how you describe it:

After lots of experimenting, I now come from AMI into the dialplan by just
calling "Action: Command\r\nCommand: console dial #*2000" from the AMI,
where #* is the flag for originating (which is handled in the dialplan),
and I'm in the dialplan, so far so good. I can set the SIPHeader there an
ring the local phone (2000) via "Dial", the local phone takes the call
automatically, fine.

But then I have only one leg, I have not yet found out how to connect this
first leg inside the dialplan with the second leg.

How can this originating be done, what has to come after Dial in order to
establish the outgoing call ?

I have read the description of "Dial()" several times now, hard to
understand, it doesn't seem to offer a 2-leg-addressing (internal number
and external number).

I also thought about creating call files in the "outgoing" directory, but
then again the problem with the missing SIPAddHeader() will lead to
failure.

Still unsolved ...

You have to learn about the local channel and how to use that from Originate. I 
think that's covered in the Asterisk book, downloadable from asteriskdocs.org 
and in many examples on the web.

Secondly, this mailing list is for Asterisk development - new code and issues 
with the Asterisk code. Your questions would get a faster and better answer on 
asterisk-users. Even if it's about development, it's about development of your 
own app, not about Asterisk.

Good luck in your Asterisk adventures!

I think you had a wrong rates because you did not get a Platinum

If you looking to get a interconnection with Tier 1 carries and save
