Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] call forwarding number from outside.

The issue with assisted transfer is that the "assisting transferer" is a second
call

Outside ->  A

A answers

A calls B to tell them they have a call (call #2 with ID of A

A transfers Outside but the ID stays A



Blind Transfer

Outside ->  A

A answers

A blind transfers to B (1 call - keeps ID.


 From the output of "core show application dial":

     f: Force the callerid of the *calling* channel to be set as the
     extension associated with the channel using a dialplan 'hint'. For example,
     some PSTNs do not allow CallerID to be set to anything other than the
     number assigned to the caller.

In Asterisk 1.8 and later, if the phones (endpoints) support it, the connected party display on the phone will update *after* the transfer has been completed to show who the person is talking to (not the person who performed the transfer).
