[Asterisk-Users] Call screening

[Brancaleoni Matteo]

If you're using zap channels
you could use the Zapbarge app.
Just set up an extension to start
the app, like

exten => 8000,1,ZapBarge
exten => 8000,2,Hangup

Asterisk then will prompt for a chan
number (zaptel only!) and let
you listen to what passes
on that channel...

You can barge from any channel, but
only into zaptel (ie you can listen
from sip to a zap channel).
