Re: [asterisk-users] Can a duration limit be specified in spool call file?
Thanks Faisal. That is it. I was confused by the fact that there is also the Context, Extension, and Priority in the .call file that should be filled along with the Channle: local. I found out that the call file first calls the local channel context and once that is connected then it moves onto the second context that is defined in subsequent the variables. Indeed this was what was throwing me off. -Bruce On Tue, Feb 8, 2011 at 1:57 AM, fai...@vopium.com wrote: Hi, If you need full control on both legs of call you can redirect Leg-1 to your dialplan as Channel: Local/your-extension@your-context/nLocal/your-extension@your-context/n and from there you control the Leg-1 using dial-plan or AGI as you like while Leg is normally comes to dialplan and totally in controll.
