<div dir="ltr">I've not used conferences terribly much, but I think this is how you'll have to use it.<div><br></div><div>First: freeswitch has flags on the conferences - you can set members to be deaf (can't hear), mute (can't speak) or both (among other things)</div>
<div>Second: I think you'll have to create your nets, and then.. each user will need his own conference, otherwise, he could only be in one conference at a time. Then, you would use some ESL-foo or something like "bind_digit_action" to let them choose to join a net, and to modify the talking to each net (e.g. by un/setting the deaf for each of the conferences). (You'd have to bridge each conference into his own, too, so he could hear/speak). Actually, I'm not really sure how you'd handle the speaking.. how to choose which to speak to, and how to make sure he can hear, but they won't feed back into the conference..</div>

capabilities.<span> </span>I’ve downloaded it and am
diving into it right now.<span> </span>One part of
the functionality that I’m looking for is something like radio nets.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In this scenario, there would be multiple “nets” or
conference room-like channels, and the user would essentially be in all of them,
but be able to set talk/listen capabilities on each individually.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">For instance, you might have a “Master Coordination Net” a “Troubleshooting
Net” and a “Local Area Net”.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The user would be in all of those, and set Listen
on all, or some of
the nets, but only talk on the “Troubleshooting Net”, but then would
like to
talk on Master Coord and Local Area, so he would set talk on both of
those and
his voice would go out to just those listening on those two nets? Most
of the users would be SIP clients, but some would be coming in off of
PSTN and other interfaces.<br></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It seems like this should be possible, but right now I’m
sorting through all of the different modules and settings and everything, and
am really starting to wonder if this is possible or not.<span style="font-family:Wingdings"><span></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br></p><p class="MsoNormal">Eventually, my plan would be to move the Talk/Listen status to external
push button switches that I read in via some digital inputs, and then I would write a little program to set the
talk/listen based upon the button status to provide a control panel type of interface for a user.</p><p class="MsoNormal"> <br></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks. Freeswitch looks amazing so far, and so much more intuitive than
Asterisk!</p>
