Hello, Yet another puzzle I've been trying to resolve. I have been trying to implement a simultaneous ring group that calls multiple external phone numbers (ie cellphones). Similar to call group, first person who answers gets the bridging. Bridge with commas works well for internal extensions and call groups, but it seems like it doesn't like multiple external legs. Should I be using something else besides bridge function?

No, it should work the same. Does your sip carrier allow multiple simultaneous calls with the same credentials? Is your bridge directly to "external/gateway/sample_gateway/1npaxxxxxxx" ? And... as always, a trace of what happened, posted to pastebin, could provide more feedback. Rather than just "it seems like it doesn't like" - what happened? -Avi On Tue, Feb 15, 2011 at 3:22 AM, Frank Park <frank@telonium.com> wrote:

Frank, This is easy to do with bridge: http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Misc._Dialplan_Tools_bridge#Calling_multiple... However, one issue you'll likely experience is early audio and answers. When calling multiple cell phones, for example, it's very likely at least one will be out of service, ignored (callee declining call), etc. As long as voicemail is active it's a race to see what answers first - an actual human being or a cell carrier voicemail system. The first thing you can do is pass http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Variable_ignore_early_media to bridge. That way you'll only have to worry about actual answers - even if it is a voicemail system.

Let me see if I can generate the the log and post it on a pastebin today. The ignore_early_media is disabled, last time I checked, but I will also confirm that it's doing that on this dialplan. More to come :) Frank On Tue, Feb 15, 2011 at 8:17 AM, Kristian Kielhofner <kris@kriskinc.com>wrote:
