asterisk mute all channels on a confbridge by single command


I am working on a solution with asterisk, that needs to enter all caller channels in a confbridge and then there is admin user that can mute and unmute any channel at runtime by it's choice.

All of this is working.

But now I am stuck at a scenario where admin has to unmute multiple caller channels, and to mute all of them I have to go through a loop and run the mute command for all channels. I need to avoid this, So, Is there any asterisk confbridge command that can mute all channels in that specific confbridge at once ?

I need a asterisk command or AMI action or anything from ARI that can do it ? Or is there any other way around for it ?


Solution

  • I don't know why you not found how to do that, it is described everywhere

    pro-sip*CLI> confbridge <TAB pressed here>
    kick    list    lock    mute    record  show    unlock  unmute  
    pro-sip*CLI> confbridge mute <TAB pressed, only one conference, so it will be auto-fill>
    pro-sip*CLI> confbridge mute 1234  <TAB pressed here>
    all                               Local/100@conferences-00000013;2  participants  
    
    pro-sip*CLI> confbridge mute 1234 all
    Muting all from confbridge 1234
    pro-sip*CLI>
    
    pro-sip*CLI> confbridge list 1234 
    Channel                        Flags  User Profile     Bridge Profile   Menu             CallerID
    ============================== ====== ================ ================ ================ ================
    Local/100@conferences-00000013;2 m      default_user     default_bridge   default_menu     <unknown>
    

    So, m here mean muted

    Lets ensure:

    pro-sip*CLI> confbridge unmute 1234 all
    Unmuting all from confbridge 1234
    pro-sip*CLI> confbridge list 1234
    Channel                        Flags  User Profile     Bridge Profile   Menu             CallerID
    ============================== ====== ================ ================ ================ ================
    Local/100@conferences-00000013;2        default_user     default_bridge   default_menu     <unknown>
    

    ps almost any command in asterisk allow press TAB to show hints/variants.
