Hi all!<br>
<br>
Is anyone using the $subject setup?<br>
<br>
What I would like to do the following setup:<br>
1. OXE is setup for receiving calls, handling Agents<br>
2. Asterisk as external IVR on extension 9xxx connected with ISDN (Q.931) PRI<br>
<br>
The incoming calling route:<br>
1. OXE handles incoming calls, answer<br>
2. Transfer to extension 9xxx<br>
3. Asterisk answer (using one channel)<br>
4. IVR is handling calls<br>
5. If needed IVR transfer back to specified Pilot in OXE with Dial<br>
(using two channels)<br>
6. Asterisk hangup (free both channels)<br>
7. OXE connect the PSTN incoming line with Pilot as extension transfer does<br>
<br>
I've talked with support person at Alcatel and he said that Q.931<br>
cannot handle this situation because after calls "leave" OXE it does<br>
not know anything so I cannot hangup in Asterisk and call will use two<br>
channel. Is it right? He said that ABCF2 or Q.SIG is able handling<br>
this situation because Q.SIG is an extension to Q.931. I take some<br>
search on topic and find out that Asterisk's Q.SIG not fully<br>
implemented. Is Asterisk implementation enough for this kind of setup?<br>
<br>
I am using Asterisk 1.6.0.3-rc1 with dahdi-*-2.1.0 on Ubuntu Server 8.10.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>

<br>I'm not an authority on this topic, but I would say that, as OXE and asterisk are connected through an E1/T1 link,<br>- you must upgrade OXE and Asterisk to Q.SIG to get forwarding option (and check asterisk's QSIG supports Call Deflection),<br>
- casual PRI is enough if you stick with 2 channels option.<br><br>If you don't expect to get more than 15 (or 12) calls at a time, I don't see any real downside to use option 2.<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
