<h3><a name="Asterisk11Application_RetryDial-Synopsis"></a>Synopsis</h3>
<p>Place a call, retrying on failure allowing an optional exit extension.</p>
<h3><a name="Asterisk11Application_RetryDial-Description"></a>Description</h3>
<p>This application will attempt to place a call using the normal Dial application. If no channel can be reached, the <em>announce</em> file will be played. Then, it will wait <em>sleep</em> number of seconds before retrying the call. After <em>retries</em> number of attempts, the calling channel will continue at the next priority in the dialplan. If the <em>retries</em> setting is set to 0, this application will retry endlessly. While waiting to retry a call, a 1 digit extension may be dialed. If that extension exists in either the context defined in <tt>EXITCONTEXT</tt> or the current one, The call will jump to that extension immediately. The <em>dialargs</em> are specified in the same format that arguments are provided to the Dial application.</p>
