[Asterisk-Users] Putting a call on hold

[Marconi Rivello]

Hi,

How do I put a call on hold? If i press # the music on hold plays to
the other person, but asterisk asks for a number to transfer... I
don't want to transfer, I simply want to put the person on hold, so
he/she can hear the music while I do something, then get them off
hold. Is it possible?

The scenario: The person calls me from a SIP phone, and I receive the
call in a regular PSTN phone, from the FXO. I don't want any of the calls
to get disconnected.

Thanks.
