Answer a ringing phone from another phone

Asterisk Asterisk Support

Hi,

i want my asterisk to do something like that:

a person calls a softphone but nobody answer to this softphone. Another person with another softphone can answer the call made to the ringing phone (digiting the extension of the ringing phone on his softphone).
This function has a specific name but i don’t know it in english… the name in italian is “risposta per assente”.

Is it possible to do it with asterisk?

How can i do it?

Thanks!

You need a feature called “directed pickup”, I think, look for some infos here:
