Hi,
Is there a way to stop FreePBX answering a call with ' the number is not in service' if no extensions are registered?
In this particular situation I'm using FreePBX 12.0.76.2 and have trunk from a PSTN gateway being routing into an extension group.
What i don't want to happen is if no extensions in the ring group are registered then the system immediately answers in bound calls with the 'the number is not in service' message.
What I would like to happen is for the call not to be actually answered until the time set by the ring group and then the call should be router to what is set in the ring group in 'Destination if no answer'. i.e. it should behave just like there where extensions registered and ringing but not answered.
I don't want to use queues (or similar) that 'play' the ringing tones to a caller as I don't want the call actually answered until the ring group time out.
I need something like a dummy or fake extension that pretends to be registered and the PBX thinks the extension is ringing on in bound calls.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Peter.
