    [ https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/ASTERISK-22246?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=208503#comment-208503 ] 

Rusty Newton commented on ASTERISK-22246:
-----------------------------------------

There are obviously various flags that will only work when starting Asterisk and not when connecting to a remote console (some more obvious than others). We should find a way to make this clear in the various help texts.

> We should probably change the flag description in man page and "asterisk -h" output to mention you have to enable it when starting Asterisk... this probably applies to other commands as well..
