[asterisk-users] Busy out a zap channel?

[C F]

Just create an extension like this:
[busyoutline]
exten => 111,1,Answer()
exten => 111,n,Busy()

then drop a .call file like this:
Channel: Zap/1/111
 MaxRetries: 2
 RetryTime: 60
 WaitTime: 30
 Context: busyoutline
 Extension: 111
 Priority: 1

The above should work, however keep in mind if the telco will send a
CPC at any time during the off hook announcement, that the channel
will be terminated. If the line doesn't work, then this should work
perfectly.

When you want to hang this up just log into CLI and do the following
command (1.2.x not sure about 1.4.x): soft hangup Zap/1-1

Hope this works.
