Forward / routing loops, full database connections

[mat1010]

Hello,

I'm using Fusionpbx 4.4 and struggle a bit to get call groups setup properly. I have a callgroup with ext. no. 100 and some members.

If some members are forwarding their direct calls to ext. 100, they get called by the group again and redirecting again too the group. Is there a way to avoid those loops and ensure that only calls that are not coming from the forward target itself are forwarded?

Thanks,

Even though this topic is quiet old, is there anyone facing similiar issues and has a workaround for it? Relying on max_forwards does not scale well if you have multiple members that are redirecting back to the group, it results in full database connections.

Here again the "callflow":

Group 100 gets called -> member 20 is not registered -> forwards back to group 100, because of a "forward if unregistered" rule -> group 100 calls member 20 again and so on.
