Failover Based on Telephony Cause Codes

November 2009

231

„

Gateway failure during an active call by disconnecting the PSTN

cable.

Applications needing specific information about a call failure can use

the cause codes reported by BfvLineTerminateCall(). However, using

cause codes to determine failover scenarios is complicated. In most

cases, the cause codes supplied by the gateway are

manufacturer-specific and depend on the protocol being used.

Therefore, if you use any particular code in determining a failover

scenario (where re-routing should occur), you should consider the

context including the protocol and the gateway manufacturer.
