Loopback endpoint

From FreeSWITCH Wiki

Mod loopback will let you loop a call back into the dialplan through the loopback endpoint. As soon as the loopback channel is able to connect two channels together it will disappear as if the two channels had been connected directly.

Precautions

Please take extra precautions in regard to CDR records. They may not display the information you are looking for after a call has been bridged through the loopback endpoint.

Be careful with using proxy media or T.38 pass-through (this is not supported with loopback/ channels).

Call a local extension

Basic form

loopback/<exten>[/context[/dialplan]]

Example 1

loopback/1000 

Would inherit the context and dialplan from the other leg.

Example 2

loopback/1000/default

Would force the context.

Example 3

loopback/1000/default/XML

Would force both the dialplan and context.
