Hello,


On a Asterisk 1.6.1 powered system, I've just discovered that using  Busy() application in dialplan was no enough to send a Busy signal on incoming Dahdi channel.


On this specific install, adding an Answer()) and a Playtone() statement in dialplan triggered sending of busy tone but I'm still surprised by my findings.


Should I expect public switch to send a Busy tone to caller whenever Asterisk triggers Busy app or did I miss something ?


Regards

It depends upon what kind of DAHDI channel.  If it is an analog FXS/FXO port then
you have to answer for the busy tone to be heard by the caller because as far as the
telco is concerned it delivered a call to a non-busy line.  If it is an ISDN
channel then it depends upon what you have the priindication option set to.  With
priindication=outofband then a busy cause code is sent to the network and the call
is hung up.  With priindication=inband then a busy tone is sent after a possible
PROGRESS message.

That makes sense.


Then I'm wondering if playing a Busy tone is enough to let Caller's telco or device ask for automatic redial.

I think this feature is only available ISDN or equivalent networks.

Thank you very much  for sharing this.

I'm gonna check what's really happening from caller's perspective when such parameter is set.

I would expect a busy tone (and the opportunity for automatic redialing).

Sending a busy signalling on D channel (priindication=outofband) will go
back into the telephone network exactly the same way the called party
was really busy... so no charge, busy tone, not completed call on the
caller side.

Just a couple of notes about priindication=inband.
- Usually sending in-band audio on a "not connected" state is not
allowed unless a special setup is done by the isdn provider.
- While sending in-band audio or busy signalling on D channel will make
no difference (from the caller perspective) if the call is originated
from an analog pstn line anything else (gsm->isdn, sip->isdn...) will
fail to get a proper state for that call.
Definitely I will never use it unless it is required, like the mandatory
price information message to be sent **before** connection if you run a
"value added" incoming service billed to the caller.
