[Freeswitch-users] Distinctive Ring

[Mario G]

I did exactly that in the SPA962 phones, it’s simple when you find the answer. You assign the ringtones a name in the phones. Then, in the bridge you add alert-info. In the example below I passed the variable from a LUA, but you could replace it with a name like Family, Friends, Work, etc. they match the phone names exactly. Then when it bridges the phone rings that tone regardless of the line it comes in on. I also think you can use it in a set command instead of the bridge but I forgot which one, export?

We use Cisco SPA504Gs which have 10 system and 2 user defined rings to choose from for “default ring”.  They also have 10 “alternate ring patterns”, but I am at a loss how to cause the phone to use an alternate ringer.
