Re: [asterisk-users] IVR for the called part (IVR inside out)

2006-10-04 Thread whois wes

Look at using the 'M' flag for the dial command - if you set up a
macro that requires a keypress, and call that macro from the Dial
command, you can force asterisk to only bridge the two call legs if
you hit something on your phone

see here, and pay attention to the 'Dial macros' blurb.

we use this exact method to ensure that our after-hours helpdesk calls
are answered by a live person and not our mobile voicemailboxes -
works like a charm.

Hello,

I'm trying to get it to work but I can't find the right way. I would be glad
if the list could point me the right directions.

What I want: My Asterisk dialing out to a number (my mobile phone) and
playing an IVR to the called part saying "press one to accept this call". If
the called part (my mobile) press 1 the call goes thru, otherwise it goes
straight to asterisk voicemail.

Reason (my scenario): I'm going to setup a follow me from my extension to my
mobile phone and I don't want people to find out they are actually rining on
my mobile. I don't have the option to disable voicemail feature on the
mobile company. The problem happens if I don't pick the call or I'm, for
instance inside a tunnel, where my mobile lose signal. Asterisk will think
my mobile voicemail is somebody answering, and whoever called me will her
the mobile voicemail.

I've been searching for a while before emaiil the list but I could not find
anything like it.

Thank you very much

I don't think that that there's any way around this. At some point you
require human intervention.

Perhaps the only way to do it would be to set up some sort of timer.
After x seconds if you don't get a key press Asterisk moves the call to
it's own VM?
