[asterisk-users] Detect if a Number is up or not

[Danny Nicholas]

This is probably a good idea, BUT it is likely that the dialed phone will
never ring (Perhaps that is the desired effect);  In my experience it takes
Zap/DAHDI about 2-7 seconds to generate the first ring of a call.

another idea you could test is to use a very short Timeout in your Dial
command.

like Dial(ZAP/012345678,1) - will dial and exit after 1 sec with
DIALSTATUS set accordingly
