Special REDIRECTING considerations for ISDN

Special considerations for Q.SIG and ISDN point-to-point links are needed to make the DivertingLegInformation1, DivertingLegInformation2, and DivertingLegInformation3 messages operate properly.

You should manually send the COLR of the redirected-to party for an incoming redirected call if the incoming call could experience further redirects. For chan_misdn, just set the REDIRECTING(to-num,i) = ${EXTEN} and set the REDIRECTING(to-num-pres) to the COLR. For chan_dahdi, just set the REDIRECTING(to-num,i) = CALLERID(dnid) and set the REDIRECTING(to-num-pres) to the COLR. (Setting the REDIRECTING(to-num,i) value may not be necessary since the channel driver has already attempted to preset that value for automatic generation of the needed DivertingLegInformation3 message.)

For redirected calls out a trunk line, you need to use the 'i' option on all of the REDIRECTING statements before dialing the redirected-to party. The call will update the redirecting-to presentation (COLR) when it becomes available.
