[Asterisk-Users] Conference and transfer

[Rana Dutt]

Thanks for the info. Which phones support consultation transfers? The
Grandstream and IpDialog phones most certainly do not.

Also, I find it disconcerting that there's a Conference button on the
Grandstream phone, but when it's pressed, nothing happens. If this sends out
some sort of switch-hook flash, can Asterisk intercept it, and then use the
meetme app? Do the Cisco phones support conferencing using the Conference
button without the need for the meetme app?

on zap channels yes
on sip channels yes, depending if phone supports that too
