[asterisk-users] Home Hardware SIP Proxy with use of POTS in Emergency

2006-10-09 Thread Brandon Galbraith
Does anyone know of any ATA devices (Linksys, Dlink, Cisco, etc) that will fail over to POTS for an emergency call? I'd like to route any call except a 911 call over SIP or IAX, but any 911 call should be routed out over POTS. If this is not an option, I'm also open to devices that will fail over

No counter argument, but this may not be solved with a technical fix. It may be policy that needs to be set (i.e, if you forward your phone to a number you know is a mobile number, you'll be responbile for any costs we incur to forward calls to that number). You can then use CDR to track the info
