[asterisk-users] How to create MeetME room with dialplan?

[Danny Nicholas]

Whether you can do this and how successfully depends on your Asterisk
Flavor.  Meetme has no internal limitation that would allow you to limit the
meetme to two callers.  IMO you would have better luck using a bank of
pre-defined meetme rooms, but you can set up as many as you want "on the
fly" from the dialplan.  

 

The approach I would take to this is this

Caller A calls in - he is assigned to pre-defined room x.  AMI then calls
caller B and dumps him/her into room x.  You could use the Asterisk DB or
MYSQL to track rooms by caller.

Hi,

 

Is it possible to create a meet me room on the go through dial plan?  I am
looking to use AMI Originate to drop a call into meetme room and once it's
proved that party is joined, play him an announcement, grab few numbers from
them, and then dial a second number and drop into the same meetme room. The
reason to use this is to be able to know when the channels connected because
both parties being called are done through a third party SIP provider.

 

1- So, I am looking to use 100s of calls to connect at with each two party
connected to each other. I guess I need 50 meetme rooms for 100 callees?!

 

2- And, is it possible to create those meetme rooms on the go from within my
context via dialplan? or is there a better approach that I should take?

 

Thanks,

Bruce
