I _think_ I read it correctly the first time. Isn't the original question oriented around call control as opposed to 'disconnect supervision'? Disconnect supervision _is_ the signaling that a call has terminated (via zero voltage on tip/ring), and the majority of US telco switch vendors implement that as a default. "Who" gets to originate the disconnect is the issue, right? Or, do I need more coffee? :) _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
