[Freeswitch-users] How do you determine if DTMFs received are in-band or out-of-band?

Yes, I mean that the caller who is pressing the buttons (although in this
case the button presses are automated as they are included at the end of
the original dial string).

The reason why I believe this is possible is that in a different set-up,
not using Freeswitch (rather using Twilio) we were successfully able to
transmit DTMFs (as part of dial string) and they were not audible to the
caller.

I'm just wondering as I type this, if the fact that they were part of the
dial string is significant?
