[Asterisk-Users] Call Forwarding to Cell Phone, Pager, etc

[Richard J. Sears]

Hi Neel - 

We did it by dialing several devices at once, then calling the cell and
then pulling the call back if no one answered the cell to allow the
local vm to handle vm functions. Here is how we did it:



[macro-stdexten_cell]
; ARG1 = Greeting
; ARG2 = Extension(s) to dial
; ARG3 = Cell Phone Number to dial
;
exten => s,1,Playback(${ARG1})
exten => s,2,Dial(${ARG2},15,rtm)
exten => s,3,Goto(s-${DIALSTATUS},1)
exten => s-NOANSWER,1,Dial(IAX2/blahblah at NuFone/${ARG3},15,rtm)
exten => s-NOANSWER,2,Voicemail(u${MACRO_EXTEN})
exten => s-CHANUNAVAIL,1,Voicemail(b${MACRO_EXTEN})             ;if chan unavail (sip phone not regisitered?)
;exten => s-NOANSWER,3,Goto(default,s,1)
exten => s-BUSY,1,Voicemail(b${MACRO_EXTEN})
;exten => s-BUSY,2,Goto(default,s,1)
exten => s-.,1,Goto(s-NOANSWER,1)
exten => a,1,VoicemailMain(${MACRO_EXTEN})


Then here is the extension entry that made it happen:

exten => ${RJSWORK},1,Macro(stdexten_cell,sears_welcome,SIP/${RJSWORK}&SIP/${RJSDESK}&SIP/${RJSLAPTOP}&SIP/${RJSHOME},${RJSCELL})

All the variables are just the extensions numbers.

Hope this helps
