[Freeswitch-users] Socket-Event on "originate call"?

[Dennis]

yes, you are right. we are receiving the reply.

but, we are using socket outbound and manage all calls over this
socket. we also measure the durations (like variable_duration and
variable_billsec) and count all outgoing calls over the socket.
but, if the originate (without an inbound call) will not start the
socket, we can not count up, how many calls failed because of "user
busy" or how long the platform was in use.

a possible workarround: is it possible to trigger a dialplan over the
cli (like our default dialplan, which starts the socket), so that the
dialplan starts the originates?

the basic problem for us, that, if we just want to make dialouts, we
are missing the inbound call to start the socket.


kind regards
dennis
