Hello,

I can see weird outgoing calls, related to ASTloop/ASTblind.
I read that these IAX users are legitimate but i cannot understand why they are currently being used for what seems to be outgoing calls from my server, destinated to the same server (kind of loopback calls).
I have sometimes a dozen of calls like this at the same time, on a particular extension (usually 3117, and sometimes another one)

Also, these calls are placed while i don't even have any agent using the 3117 extension.
So it doesn't seem to be a legitimate conference feature or something like that.

Is this behavior normal ? Here are opened channels related to this extension :

Code: Select all

vicibox8:~ # asterisk -rx "core show channels"  | grep 3117

Thank you

They are used primarily for blind monitoring of agents. Are you doing that on your system?

Thank you Matt. Did some tests and yes, that was the blind monitoring system.

I had multiples calls with the same extension because the supervisor was monitoring the agents one after the other, which was opening a new line in Zoiper, putting the other ones active - on hold.

Thanks again for the quick help
