Apologies if this is a really stupid n00b question, but I don't seem to be<br>
able to find an answer anywhere.<br>
<br>
Is it possible somehow to pass a channel variable to another Asterisk server<br>
down an IAX trunk?<br>
<br>
I have 2 machines; one which is fitted with an ISDN card to make outside calls<br>
via an E1 line, and another with a GSM card to make outside calls via the<br>
mobile network. The GSM machine gets some calls passed onto it by a command<br>
like Dial(IAX2/<a href="http://user:pass@host.cc/number" target="_blank">user:pass@host.cc/number</a>) .<br>
<br>
This works nicely, but I want to know: is there any way to pass on a variable<br>
(already set in the dialplan before the Dial() occurs) to the downstream<br>
server?<br>
<br>
It's a single numeric value that I want to pass on, so I guess in the worst<br>
case it could be sent within the actual number e.g. by appending * and the<br>
data to the extension number and then using CUT() on the downstream server.<br>
But is there a less-ugly method that I am just missing?<br>
