I have posted here before, continuing my learning in my lab.
CUCM 9 and CUC 9. 4 IP Phones registered and all have mailboxes. I have a System Call Handler configured to answer calls coming from a CTI Route Point.
I have been playing with a scenario trying to learn all the capabilities of the various call handlers.
Im currently trying to allow the caller to transfer to a phone number that is registered in CUCM - but does NOT have a mailbox.
My CUC Configuration
Call Handler Basics
Callers Hear -> My Personal Recording
During Greeting -> Allow Transfers to Numbers Not Associate with Users or Call Handlers
After Greeting -> Conversation -> Caller System Transfer
System Settings -> Restriction Tables
Default Transfer
I added a new entry and specifically entered the DN that I was trying to transfer to (123)
I unchecked the "blocked" for all entries
Call Management -> Call Routing -> Forwarded Routing Rules
Attempt Forward Routing Rule -> Send Call to -> Conversation -> Attempt Forward
From an IP Phone, I dial the CTI RP and get forwarded to the main / opening call handler. I traverse a couple of menu tree levels to get to my call handler where I am attempting to transfer back to CUCM. I hear my recorded personal greeting instructing me to enter my number. Whether I wait for the recording to end or whether I enter the digits during the greeting, the results are the same. The result is that nothing happens. No recorded message telling me that I cant be transferred to that number - nothing at all. The call just terminates.
I started up Connection Remote Port Status monitor and I can watch the sequence of the call. When I enter the digits of the target phone (123), I see in the Remote Port Status Monitor that it sees and receives the DTMF digits, but then nothing happens.
I next tested by adding a test user in CUC with the same DN of 123. As soon as I did that, I repeated the attempted call and when I dialed "123", I get the recorded message "Wait while I transfer that call" and then the call completes successfully.
This is my home lab so I can make any changes that you suggest with no user implications.
