First of all few terms you wish to know: You need to create a new SIP entry at sip.conf There are few types of SIP connections that Asterisk defines as follows: 1. peer - read only 2. user - write only 3. friend - read and write You need on both SIP servers to define something that will be able to talk to each other called inbound and outbound trunks. The definition of such trunk will be configured to know to what location to pass the call. You need to forward such request (defined at the sip.conf) to a new location. Asterisk knows how to exit such call by using a context (the right section in a dial plan). > > I'm searching & reading a lot and I understand how to forward incoming calls > to another landline or cell phone, but I can't find the answer, how to > forward those calls to another SIP server… or am I missing something? > > > > Can someone help me? > > If you need any further information, pls let me know. > > > > Thanks! > > Eran I hope it points you to the right location Ido -- http://ik.homelinux.org/
