<div class=Section1>
<p class=MsoNormal>I have a call coming in from Asterisk-A going to Asterisk-B
where it‘s determined that the called party is in fact yet another number
in Asterisk-A so a new call is created from B to A and the two calls bridged
(by Asterisk) at Asterisk-B.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Originating Caller ==> Asterisk-A ==> Asterisk-B
==> Asterisk-A<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Now, what happens is that in my case both A and B are on the
same network and therefore Asterisk-A apparently optimizes the round-trip to
Asterisk-B out and the original caller talks directly to the extension hosted
in Asterisk-A without the call path going the round-trip to Asterisk-B.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Is it possible to prevent this optimization from happening?
Any way to control if it happens at all, or can it be selected on per-call
basis somehow?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Can I find anywhere more details of call path optimization
and it‘s configuration, use, functionality and behaviour?<o:p></o:p></p>
