[Asterisk-Users] IAX channel options

[Rich Adamson]

That should be a lowercase "w". The placement is correct, just not
a lowercase "w".

> I have an installation with four Qwest POTS lines.  For some unknown

> fails.  To fix that problem, I put a 'W' in the dial string:

> QWEST=Zap/g2
> 
> exten => _9303NXXXXXX,1,Dial(${QWEST}/W${EXTEN:1})
> 
> The client has since complained that, when all four lines are busy, he 
> cannot make a local call.  So I provided the ability to roll over to 
> another system to complete the call:
> 
> TELECOMMATTERS=IAX2/xxxxxx at sys1a
> 
> exten => _9303NXXXXXX,1,ChanIsAvail(${QWEST}&${TELECOMMATTERS})
> exten => _9303NXXXXXX,2,Cut(MYCHANNEL=AVAILCHAN,,1)
> exten => _9303NXXXXXX,3,Dial(${MYCHANNEL}/W${EXTEN:1})
> exten => _9303NXXXXXX,4,Hangup
> exten => _9303NXXXXXX,102,Congestion
> 
> This works fine for the Qwest line, but Asterisk doesn't absorb the 'W' 
> for the IAX call--the 'W' is sent as part of the dial string.
> 
> Is there a solution for this?
