<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>Still having trouble, I even tried to remove it from the
allowed methods, but the other end still sent a REFER anyway which asterisk
accepts but kills the call anyway.</span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>Asterisk is being used in a back-to-back sip arrangement to
take advantage of its IVR and ACD capabilities. So, inbound call from
SIP provider in to asterisk, runs through IVR and ACD perfectly and then
when ready leaves asterisk back to the SIP provider. It all works well
until the end user transfers or moves to a conference bridge outside of
asterisk. The Provider sends a REFER back to the asterisk advising that
the endpoint is going to move. Asterisk looks up the info in it’s
extension list (it isn’t there of course) and kills the call.</span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>All of the required information is contained in the REFER,
but does not appear to be used by asterisk.</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'> </span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>Is there anyway around this? Can the asterisk be
forced to respond with method not allowed (in which case another method must be
used). Or is there another way to manage REFER methods that I haven’t
found yet. Is the REFER dealt with any differently in the CVS load (I’m
using the standard version off the website 1.0.7)?</span></font></p>

rather solve this problem at source.</span></font></p>
