[asterisk-users] Asterisk variable for SIP context

[Mike]

Dave,

Well that worked perfectly. Thank you.

 A more "advanced" question then, for those who want to be challenged:

Brief: How can I find the values in the setvar field of a SIP peer, if I
don`t have access to ${var_a}.

Details: 
When I place an outgoing call, I can easily access a variable that is in the
setvar field of the sip entry of the phone used. 

i.e. Noop(${var_a}) works perfectly is setvar=var_a=foo is set.

BUT when I use two phones (Polycom in my case, I doubt it's relevant), place
phone A on forward to 555-555-5555, place a call from phone B to phone A, on
that "forward call" I lose the setvar (I get '').  The value is empty (it's
set, albeit differently, in both phone A and phone B sip entry.  So I should
be getting something).  

What am I missing?

Mike

The SIPPEER function should allow you to extract what context is defined 
in sip.conf.
