[Freeswitch-users] <application="set" data="call_timeout=5"/> VS {call_timeout=15}

[Phillip Jones]

Hi Brian,

I appreciate the response. The issue is, that in a carrier failover
situation the user is called twice if I use {leg_timeout=60} in the dial
string.

<action application="bridge"
data="{leg_timeout=60}carrier1/1001|carrier2/1001"/>
<------ rings 1001 using carrier 1 and carrier 2

The following however calls 1001 once. It works as expected and desired.

*<action application="set" data="call_timeout=5"/>*
<action application="bridge" data="carrier1/1001|carrier2/1001"/>

Why would {leg_timeout=60} cause this?
