VoIP call generator (dialer campaigns) in StarTrinity Softswitch - step by step tutorial

Key features

  • Scripts (call flow scenarios)
    • Simplest IVR - generate calls and play an audio file when the call is answered. Cancel call if it does not connect in specified time
    • Looped generated traffic - Generate call, end the call if it goes to another route (does not get back to this server). Link call to originator by B number (CLD) in real time. If call does not go to back to this server in 7 seconds after '183 session progress', cancels the call. If call gets connected by some other provider, ends call immediately. This script must be combined with originator's script type = 'receive looped traffic'. B numbers must be unique for live (current) calls. Plays one audio file or random file from folder. It could be configured to play random pair of A-side and B-side recordings from real calls, together with originator's script. Number of concurrent calls is not limited by number of recordings - 10, 100 or 1000 in one folder
