If you have analog FXO ports then the call is considered answered as soon as dialing is completed. This does not apply to SIP, PRI, or other technologies which support far end answer detection.

I need some help to understand the "billsec" column. PS: the time value in billsec & duration is same. With reference to the attached log, what does the 10 sec / 6 sec / 2 sec correspond to: (a) Time between call connection to asterisk and disconnection from asterisk? (b) Time after welcome greeting and before hangup -- the time the call rang on the extension? (c) Or any other scenario Thank you in advance.
