Subject: [asterisk-users] Passing a variable from one Asterisk box to
another
Hi all,
We currently have 2 Asterisk boxes and we pass calls to a fro.
All works great except we now need to pass variables between them.
For example now on box 1 we have:
exten => _23XX,1,SetVar(Foo=1234)
exten => _23XX,2,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN:[EMAIL PROTECTED])
When the call dials into Box 2 the variable Foo does not get
passed...
Does anyone have any clever ideas?
The correct way using SIP is to add X headers before the Dial and then
pulling them in and assigning them to channel variables on the ingress
box. Here's a snippet that shows the idea:
On the box dialing out:
exten => _23XX,1,Set(Foo=1234) <--- Use Set here not SetVar
exten => _23XX,2,SIPAddHeader(X-Foo: ${FOO})
exten => _23XX,3,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN:[EMAIL PROTECTED])
On the ingress box:
exten => _23XX,1,Set(Foo=${SIP_HEADER(X-Foo)})
exten => _23XX,2,Answer()
...yada yada
Regards,
- Brad
