The referenced message is not related to the call at all. It occurs when an
"asterisk -r" console disconnects. As for hanging up a call when the remote
goes away that depends on the channel driver. For SIP both chan_sip and
chan_pjsip provide session timers which use SIP messages to determine if
the call is no longer valid, or RTP timeout which hangs up the call if
media is not flowing for a period of time. These are configured in the
respective channel driver configuration file.
