Re: [Asterisk-Users] call transfer to external phone number
Hi! Is it possible to transfer a call to an external phone instead of transferring the call to internal phone? (I'm sorry for my bad english, I hope you understand) When, during a call, I digit #123, the call is transferred to internal extension 123, but if I digit #external_phone_number, it tells me that it's impossible. Any idea? Thanks a lot! Giuseppe I know that with polycom I was able to do this. Not by using the # sign but by hitting the transfer button and then entering the persons number and pressing transfer.

Yes, as long as the context that the phone transfering has an exten declared for that number. On 4/3/06, Giuseppe [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi!

Unfortunatelly that's the ONLY phone I can do that from! I can't do it from XLite softphone and I can't do it from analog phones connected to a Linksys PAP2. For the phones that are unable to transfer to external numbers I've got alias extensions defined (basic, 3 digit extensions). On 4/3/06, Giuseppe [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi!

Re: [Asterisk-Users] call transfer to external phone number
Asteirsk has got no clue what's internal and what's not, it's the context that decide what numbers are available for a user. In your case more info is needed to troubleshoot it.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] call transfer to external phone number
SIP transfers happen out of band, so the context is the sip phone's context noted in sip.conf. For Inbound and outbound (ie Dial application), the context is the entry point in the dial plan. If you need features.conf transfers to work in a specific context you need to set the __TRANSFER_CONTEXT variable before the Dial application so asterisk knows what context to look for extensions. The relevant wiki page: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+config+features.conf example: exten = 101,1,set(__TRANSFER_CONTEXT=vm-internal) exten = 101,n,Macro(superdial,SIP/vm-ext1SIP/outsip/9995551212,15,tr, ,pstn,2,${CALLERIDNAME},${CALLERIDNUM},pstn,[EMAIL PROTECTED]) So .. in this instance, when we outdial the cellphone (9995551212) with the 't' option, we support transfers. If we don't set the transfer context as above when the # key is hit. Asterisk is looking in the [inbound] context because that is where extension 101 was dialed from. But ... exten 101 doesn't want those available extensions, they want the same set of extensions they have at their sip phone so they can transfer to voicemail and so on. Since our outbound pattern dials to SIP/outsip also exist in [vm-internal] .. calls can be transferred out to PSTN numbers. in any case.. this is how I got it to work. :) Cosmin Prund wrote: From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:asterisk-users- [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of C F Sent: Monday, April 03, 2006 3:49 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] call transfer to external phone number Yes, as long as the context that the phone transfering has an exten declared for that number.
