[asterisk-users] automated dialout detect forward

Thanks for this hint ... I already thought about this, too.

I think Asterisk gets the required (redirect) information over signalling.
When I look at the CLI I get ...

-- IAX2 is making progress passing it to SIP
-- IAX2 is ringing

--> mobile is ringing ...
--> after the mobile redirects the call I get again ...

-- IAX2 is making progress passing it to SIP

--> after the voicebox answers I get ...

-- IAX2 stopped sounds
-- IAX2 answered SIP

So I think it must be possible to get the status between the first
"ringing" and the second "making progress".

Any ideas?

TIA,
Mike
