[Asterisk-Users] Roaming Users
Guys. I have a couple of agis that when trying to dial a local call, LD, etc. ask the user for a password and then checks against a DB to see if they can call or not. My newi dea here is to allow users to roam between extensions, for example, user 1 can go to users 2 phone and when ask for the password, enter his own and depending on privs, be able to call or not. Problem that I have here is CDR. How can I drop the current CDR record (which has users 2 extension inside) and create a new one with users 1 info on it as if the call was been made from users 1 from and not users 2? Anybody done something like this?

I'm trying to come up with an elegant solution to handle roaming users in a branch office scenario. I have a number of possible scenarios, none of which seem to completely solve the problem. Perhaps someone with a better feel of the interactions can help me out. Is the 'switch' statement useful in some way? What are the ins and outs of the 'switch' statement? Come to think of it, there was a post a while back regarding how * searches the dial plan. Does any one have a handy link to that message Any way, my example: a company has a number of branch offices. A few implementation scenarios include: a) One central hosted * against which all phones register. Phones requiring TFTP loads will need a local server or some sort of VPN'd TFTP connection to the hosted server. The canreinvite parameter on SIP phones can get complicated if we want to keep local calls local to the branch, but yet all off-net calls go to the hosted PBX for transmission to a gateway. This scenario is conducive to a roaming extension that can go from office to office. b) One central hosted * which handles DID routing and corporate Auto Attendant functions. Each branch office has a * for local extensions and voicemail. Each office will have to have a range of extensions assigned to it. This limits portability but effectively makes use of * trunking capability to get to the hosted * for off-net calls. There must be a way of merging the two scenarios so I can get: a) roaming user capability (user can take own extension [logically or physically] between offices) b) local * server at each office to handle trunking to hosted * c) central auto attendant for all offices D) local extension to extension calls stay local (don't cross the WAN to the hosted *) Ray Burkholder [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oneunified.net 704 576 5101 -- Scanned for viruses and dangerous content at http://www.oneunified.net and is believed to be clean. ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
