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 ?

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.

  • you are right, I was using asterisk version 11, confbridge mute/unmute all was not working in it. Just tested it on asterisk 16, confbridge mute/unmute all is working. Thanks. – syed kumail abbas Jul 10 '23 at 11:25
  • I am pretty sure it has worked since 1.8.x. DO NOT use versions not marked as LTS for development. At this moment, you should use 18 or 20. https://www.asterisk.org/downloads/asterisk/all-asterisk-versions/ – arheops Jul 10 '23 at 15:12
