FreePBX 13.X and Callgroups/Pickupgroups

General Help
1

Hi good evening,

I have seen that when I go to Applications --> Extensions --> 1001 (for example):

  • Call Groups
  • Pickup Groups

If for example write:
Call Groups: 31
Pickup Groups: 31

If I go to the CLI and execute: CLI> sip show peer 1001
Callgroup :
Pickupgroup :
Named Callgr : 31
Nam. Pickupgr: 31

It is correct? Shouldnt it appear on Callgroup and Pickupgroup?

It is any way to write these values on Callgroup and Pickupgroup instead on Named Callgr and Nam. Pickupgr?

regards

Miguel Sanz

I´m using pjsip and return of pjsip show endpoint is:

named_call_group : 3
named_pickup_group : 3
one_touch_recording : false
outbound_auth :
outbound_proxy :
pickup_group :

Since Asterisk introduced the concept of named pickup and call groups (i.e. can now use alpha-numeric strings for groups) you can no longer set Callgroup and Pickupgroup in in the GUI. This should not be an issue, as the functionality is still the same regardless, do you have a use case that requires setting these?

Hi Lorne,

Im using chan_sccp.so and I always have used Callgroup and Pickupgroup on sip and sccp extensions which belong to the same pickup group

Hi again Lorne,

I have done several test and the solution is to use the same config. on sccp.conf:
namedcallgroup = 31
namedpickupgroup = 31

BEFORE

If you use on SIP extensions:
callgroup = 31
pickupgroup = 31

You have to use on SCCP extensions:
callgroup = 31
pickupgroup = 31

If you want that the pickup go fine on all the cases.

If you use on SIP extensions:
namedcallgroup = 31
namedpickupgroup = 31
