I have

[sip]
exten = 605,1,Dial(SIP/605||S(30))

in my sip context (where agents are located) When I call this from
another sip phone, it works ie call gets terminated in 30 seconds, but
when this extension is called from queue it does not work.

The asterisk cli gives the following output

   -- outgoing agentcall, to agent '605', on 'Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED],1'
   -- Called Agent/605
   -- Executing Dial(Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED],2, SIP/605||S(30)) in new stack
   -- Setting call duration limit to 30 seconds.
   -- Called 605
   -- SIP/605-082f56c0 is ringing
   -- Agent/605 is ringing

As you can see the call duration is properly set in the logs.

The queue.conf has the following entries for the queue

musiconhold = default
strategy = roundrobin
servicelevel = 60
timeout = 60
retry = 5
wrapuptime=5
announce-frequency = 90
announce-holdtime = yes
member = Agent/605

Any help to get this working will be much appreciated.

I am using call back agents. Pardon me if this is obvious, but the
dial is performed by the queue app, so how do I control the dial
command? A bit more elaboration will be of great help.

[asterisk-users] Maximum talktime in a queue?

2006-10-25 Thread Rajkumar S

Hi,

Is it possible to define maximum talk time in a queue? ie any one who
joins a queue should not be able to talk more than say 5 minutes to
the agent.

Hi Raj,
if you use Local channels for agents (or callback agents), you can easily  
do this in the Dial() command after the Local channel is called. Of course  
your clients may get a bit angry at being disconnected, it is usually  
better to jave each agent stay aware od the call length and occasionally  
tolerate longer calls :)

Just my $0.02

I am replacing an old call center system with asterisk, which had this
facility. So the clients are pretty used to getting cut at 5 minutes.
So every one tries to make the calls short and sweet :)


thanks a lot,
