Thanks, I understand both options. What I was wondering about is whether anybody proposed any type of standard for this feature. I would expect this to be a fairly common feature for a PBX, so somebody should have implemented this before.
I personally was thinking of using something along the line of special value for Alert-Info header. This way, if the phone does not support this extension it will fall back to normal call. ___________________________________ Roman Shpount, VP of Technology aTelo, Inc. ------ Original message ------ >From: Chris Boulton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: RE: [Sip-implementors] Force Offhook >Date: 02 Apr 03, 10:38 AM >To: Christer Holmberg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Roman Shpount <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> You could do this by including a certain value in a header/parameter. So in normal circumstances, the phone would ring - else if the required value is present - auto-answer.
