Hello Tony, I couldn't agree more with your statement, but that doesn't get Call Pickup fixed on Aastra phones. And because Aastra is not doing anything, and we need this feature badly I'm asking for trickery. 2 options: remain stubborn and require full SIP compliancy or use tricks. I guess Aastra won't listen and not supporting this feature will not increase acceptance for SipX.
We are fixing the BLF in a bad way for Aastra, but in the most elegant way this bad hack can be done. :) It's like problems with the Linux kernel in the past; you can fix hardware problems through drivers or tell the company to fix their hardware. Sometimes it's good to choose the first option. This BLF ticket is from 2008, and nothing happened. I agree with the Freeswitch thing. Most of the time we try to not involve Freeswitch, but it has more flexability because of all the applications and no recompiling when changes are made. If we can get grip on the call in SIP without using Freeswitch it's less ugly, but we have no idea how. When using Asterisk we could just listen on the AMI and then bridge the call to the phone doing call pickup without doing any RTP. Where do we inject like this in SipX? If you have some trick up you sleeve PLEASE tell me. :) Regards, Niek Vlessert Telecats Op 16 sep. 2011, om 21:13 heeft Tony Graziano het volgende geschreven: > Internal calls (where call pickup comes into play) is handled by the > proxy.
