[asterisk-users] Call parking

[Danny Nicholas]

The way I made this work was to set up 200 as my "parker" and I do transfer,
200, transfer.

exten => 200,1,Answer

exten => 200,n,Park(701)

Subject: [asterisk-users] Call parking

 

Hi,

 

Been playing with Call parking, and I can`t help but wonder if I am doing
something incorrectly.  The way I understand it (using default config in
features.conf), is I would transfer a call to extension 700, which would
park the call, tell me "701".  I could then hang up, go fetch the fright
person and tell him "call 701 you have a call waiting for you".

 

The way I have it working now, is that I can transfert the call to 700, I do
get "701" as a response but then, the call doesn't leave my phone.  The
caller gets put on hold (great) but I also get put on hold and need to keep
the call going. If I hang up, so does the caller.

 

Can`t the parked call just go park itself (and hang up my leg of the call),
and ideally call me back if not picked up within x seconds?

 

Mike
