[Freeswitch-users] Automation of calls?

Mon Jul 14 10:11:24 MSD 2014

Correction Markus.
Endpoints in fact dont use PSTN network for making calls. They have 10 
digit number for ID, and using 10digitno at domain, sip url is formed and 
registered.
So now two endpoints are on pure SIP enabled n/w with 10digitno at domain 
URLs. Now, is it possible to set auto-answer for ENDPOINT B.
