Qualify isn't an option in this case. The SIP peer itself may be fine but the next device in the chain may not be.
Take for example the case where you have an SIP peer which is connected to a PRI. The peer itself may be fine but the PRI could be down. Qualify will tell you the peer is up but when a call is sent to the device it may take a long time for the dial attempt on the PRI to fail. What I want to do is move on to the next peer if there is no progress in X number of seconds. - John Lange www.johnlange.ca On Tue, 2008-11-04 at 18:26 -0500, Philip Mullis wrote: > why not just create a dial group and use qualify in you sip profile > definitions if 1 is down it will ring right to the next. > > > > John Lange wrote: > > When placing a call to a SIP peer, is there a setting that controls how > > long Asterisk will wait for a progress response from the peer before > > giving up and moving on to the next dial priority? > > > > What I'm trying to do is setup an effective fail-over between several > > SIP peers. > > > > I can't set a normal dial timeout because obviously that would be way to > > short. > > > > Something like: > > > > Dial(SIP/[EMAIL PROTECTED]|3|r) > > > > but where the "3" seconds only applies if the peer doesn't report > > "making progress". > > > > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
