RE: [Asterisk-Users] answering calls with SIP phones

[John Todd]

I haven't tried this SIP features, but in the latest sip.conf.sample, 
this is included:

;[pingtel]
;type=friend
;username=pingtel
;secret=blah
;host=dynamic
;qualify=1000                   ; Consider it down if it's 1 second to reply
;callgroup=1,3-4
;pickupgroup=1,3-4
;defaultip=192.168.0.60
Looks like that is somehow indicating that SIP supports call groups. 
Is this incorrect?

Thanks, very good insights.

The proposed method has a single flaw - it's very difficult to detect
that all SIP channels are busy, and thus queue the call.
It's a petty that SIP does not support call groups, it would make it
automatic.
Best,

 I have an incoming call that I would like answered every time by a
 different SIP phone (out of 50).
hmm... pass the call through an AGI first, that picks a random number
and then pass the call to that SIP phone number
 Also, some of the phone may not be available (may be turned off and
thus
 unregistered with Asterisk).
set the unavailable priority to go back to the AGI for another try

 Any way of doing this?
i'm sure there are more, and intelligent ways of doing this
but if you want a kludge, this'll work
