Usage of the Alert-Info header

The SIP Alert-Info header must look like this:

Alert-Info: <http://www.notused.com>;info=alert-event;x-line-id=0

where

• <http://www.notused.com> -> a dummy URL is required otherwise the specified file (wav format) will be downloaded

• info=alert-group -> alert-event: free defined string configured in
  • "Alert Internal Text"
  • "Alert External Text" or
  • "Alert Group Text"
  • "Internal Ringer Text 0-10"

• • e.g. "Alert Internal Text": internal_calls -> info=internal_calls

• x-line-id=0 -> part of the syntax -> no use, will be ignored

• Note: Asterisk- Users may include the SIP Header this way (Attention: Use the quotation otherwise the semicolons are interpreted as comments!):

exten => s,n,SIPAddHeader("Alert-Info:<http://www.notused.com>\;info=alert-external\;x-line-id=0")

Since this is a security issue as well, additionally the following setting must be switched "on" on the receiving phone:

´Answer After´ Policy

You can also use the Alert-Info headers to choose a certain ringtone from the ones available on the phone. Here is an example of a call that should ring using Ringer 3:

Alert-Info: <http://127.0.0.1/Ringer3>
