[asterisk-users] Using Asterisk Only as Voice RecordingSolution.

[Syed Nasruddin]

Thanks Steve,

How I can use it "Asterisk" as Man In The Middle. Since we have to keep
our Native PBX intact and functioning but only thing it doesn't handle
is Voice Recording. I thought if I can get some Channel Variable or some
system generated event regarding OFF-HOOK and ON-HOOK condition through
Asterisk I will easily handle this requirement. 

It will be a great help if you can elaborate how I can use asterisk as
man-in-the-middle configuration along with my current PBX.

Thanks a lot for your prompt response

It may not be possible to do this in parallel the way you are trying
now.  In series should be a simple task.

Just pass the call through Asterisk as the man in the middle, the
dialplan will be very simple.

Thanks,
