The X-Lite softphone does indeed have a "Transfer" and "Hold" in the interface, but the functionality of those buttons appears to have been disabled when the client is connected and registered on the Asterisk server. Pressing the on-screen buttons doesn't have any effect while either having a call or while idle. Related to client-side transferring: I set the "canreinvite" option in the SIP configuration to "no" because both clients are behind a NAT / firewall and I read in the documentation that you'd want to disable the "canreinvite" option in those situations. I haven't had any trouble because of this, as I stated earlier calling and talking is working without hitches. I haven't had the chance to try hardware phones yet, the testing I'm doing at the moment involves softphones only. Now that I think of it, I'll try to setup other applications again which might send DTMFs in a different form compared to X-Lite. In the meantime thanks in advance to everyone involved in this thread now and in the future.
