[asterisk-users] Possible to get "Courtesy Tone" on attended transfer?

[Lincoln King-Cliby]

Thanks for the answer Terry, it's kind of what I expected. I may have to look into using Attended transfers in Asterisk, but I think my users really prefer having the TRNSFR soft key instead of remembering a feature code. 

I guess then the next question... Does anyone know of a way to map the Transfer key on a Cisco 79x1 (Specifically 7961G) to call the Asterisk attended transfer function vs. doing a native SIP transfer? -- As I think of it, even if it were possible, that may create more issues than it solves, but I'd still be curious if there was a way to do that.

If you are using builtin asterisk attended transfers (enabled in  
features.conf), then this is the behavior.  I don't believe there is a  
way to do this with native SIP transfers, currently.
