It's possible to detect call forwarding on ISDN. The telco must enable
it for you (for a large recurring fee when I last investigated).
Basically, you need to compare the actual connected number vs the number
that was dialed. I did a POC using an ISDN BRI line provided by Singtel.
My Asterisk setup at that time was Asterisk 1.0.3 with chan-capi.

Hope this helps.
