We have asterisk for a small group of users in our head office, and still a
Fujtisu PBX for the majority of users.
 
The request have been can we get asterisk to be the Automated Attendant for
incoming calls from the PSTN.
IE. Press
    1 for sales
    2 for service
    3 for admin
    ...
    0 for reception
 
The answer so far is, of course asterisk can. But as I understand it will
bridge the call to the Fujitsu PABX.
 
We need to transfer the call back out of asterisk down the E1 line and to
the MAIN PABX, and free up the 2 trunks used. As I understand this, redirect
the call.
 
Tthe setup is as below.
 
SALES       SERVICE/ADMIN/...
ASTERISK    FJPABX
   |        |  
   E1       E1
   |        |
   ISDN SWITCH (Jtec 5015 - Nice but obsolete)
        |
        E1
        |
       TELCO
       PSTN 

Developers: Guide me in the right direction, and if it's not supported,
what's the likely hood? Or do I need rmudgett on the case.

Alec Davis.
