Thomas,

In queues.conf you need to set the variable setinterfacevar=yes

You'd then pass the AGI to the Queue application with something like this:

exten => some_extension,n,Queue(somequeue,,,,,some.agi)

Then within the AGI you'd retrieve the variable like this:

my $memberinterface = $AGI->get_variable('MEMBERINTERFACE'); # Perl example.

Hope this helps.
