Hi!
I’m trying to understand the true (and complete) command Answer().
Sure, I understand what it means… but the real effects what are?
I’ve searched on the web and I found that it connects the two legs of the call but the relationship with the time of a call what is?
I try to explain…
I call from my SIP telephone (that is subscribed to a provider) the server that has asterisk with a trunk SIP.
I’ve noticed that if I write a context like this:
[AAA]
exten => AAA,1,Ringing()
exten => AAA,n,Dial(…)
exten => AAA,n,Dial(someone else…,and play music to the caller while is ringing)
exten => AAA,n,Hangup
if noboy picks up the telephone never shows the timer until the end of the call.
if I write a context like this:
[AAA]
exten => AAA,1,Ringing()
exten => AAA,n,Dial(…)
exten => AAA,n,Answer
exten => AAA,n,Dial(someone else…,and play music to the caller while is ringing)
exten => AAA,n,Hangup
when it start the 3rd row my telephone starts to show the timer of the call…although nobody picks up!!!
So my question is: in the first case I never pay to the service provider???
Doesn’t the timer on the telephone be related to the cost of the call???
