Hello,

I want to redirect in some puntual moments the incoming calls (sip or from outside) to a number, now I am doing it modifying the extensions.conf every time I want to do it, but I want to know if there is any way to do it from a phone.

For example, if I call to the number 9999, it ask me for the number to I want to redirect all the incoming calls and after that all the incoming calls goes to the number i have input.

Thank you.

Yes, you can do this with *:

  • in the dialplan use a variable to dial the destination number;
  • setup an extension where you set this variable, asking the user the number to save in the variable;
  • you can also use the * internal database to save this variable.

Have a look here for examples about call forwarding: voip-info.org/wiki/view/Aste … forwarding .

Cheers.
