[Asterisk-Users] Transferring a call with IAX

[Aaron Daniel]

Yes, the other system does not maintain control of the phone call.  We're 
using IAX right now to handle redundancy (going to move to SIP soon I 
think) and basically, when the other system hangs up the channel, the 
original server continues in it's own call pattern until it hangs up or 
the user hangs up.  This way, whatever server the call comes from handles 
all call control except the actual conversation when needed.

Can I get control back on the original system, and transfer it to voicemail from there, or do I have to transfer it from the ACD box?
