[Asterisk-Users] Is setting the variable _TRANSFER_CONTEXT required in features.conf?

[Chuck Bunn]

Hi,

I support multiple context on one asterisk server. I have a situation 
where there is a spa that has seperate voicemail and extensions and a 
resturant on the same campus that has different extensions and 
voicemail. They both use the same asterisk server but I do need the 
ability to transfer a caller from the spa to the resturant and vise 
versa. There are seperate phone lines comming in for the spa and 
resturant as well.

Thanks
