Handling Blind Transfers With ARI

Hello,

I’m trying to figure out how blind transfers are supposed to work with ARI.

When two channels are bridged together through ARI, and one of them performs a blind SIP transfer, two things happen :

– a Local channel is instanciated and goes through the dialplan at the specified destination

– the transferee channel goes through the same dialplan at the specified destination

The latter looks fine. The former is strange. I understand that this Local channel is created to avoid losing track of the transferee channel in ARI, but:

– how am I supposed to handle it ?

– when the transfer is successful, which channel must be placed in which bridge ?

– why do both channels go through the same part of the dialplan ? I
would have expected only one of them to do that.

Any hints ?

Regards,

Jean
