Making Two B-Channel Transfers

When making a two B-channel transfer, the central office connects

two outside calls through the central office, freeing the B-channels to

take more calls. You can only transfer calls using two B-channels on

T1 ISDN PRI configurations.

Bfv maintains a maximum of two calls per B-channel. Of these two

calls, only one call is on hold at a time. Bfv provides a hold function

using BfvCallHold in your application:

BfvCallHold(lp, &args);

See

page 210

for more information about putting a call on hold using

BSMI.
