Transferring a call does not work with Direct Routing in MS Teams

Question

Transferring a call does not work with Direct Routing in MS Teams

Anoniem

Hello,

We have set up Direct routing for our client so they can call to the PSTN from the MS Teams app. Calls are working fine, incoming and outgoing.

Only problem we are facing now is that calls can't be transferred to an outside number.

Do we have to configure anything special to allow call transfer to the PSTN?

This is a hybrid setup. There is a local PBX for employees that do not use MS Teams, and it is connected to a Cisco SBC that has a SIP Trunk to MS Teams.

The receptionist is using MS Teams and should be able to transfer incoming calls to cell phones and local phones on the local PBX.

It seems that the call routing is ok, since calls can be made and recieved in MS Teams. Only transfers are not working.

Any ideas?

Hello,

I have made some configuration changes on our SBC and now I see an Invite going back to the MS Teams Proxy. However, the MS Teams Proxy replies with a '404 Not Found' message.

Answer 2

Hello Didier D,

I'm Ibhadighi and I'd happily help you with your question. In this forum, we are Microsoft consumers just like yourself.

The issue you're facing with call transfers in MS Teams Direct Routing could be due to a few reasons. Here are some potential solutions:

**Licensing**: Ensure that the correct licenses are assigned to the auto attendant. If you can transfer a call to an internal user or a bot, but can't transfer a call to an external PSTN number, this might indicate a licensing issue.
**SIP Invite Message**: Make sure that the SIP Invite message is sent to the SIP proxy that can transfer calls appropriately. The SIP Invite message should be returned to the SIP proxy, not to PSTN or any other destination, even if the call is transferred to an external PSTN number.
**SIP Refer Message**: The SBC doesn't have to parse the SIP Refer message to look for the transfer target. It should send the SIP Invite message together with the Request-URI (RURI) setting only to contents of the Refer-To header. It should also include the Referred-By header from the SIP Refer message. Make sure that the strings of the SIP Invite message are not changed, and that they are sent as the exact same strings that are provided in the SIP Refer message (especially in the Referred-By header).

If these steps don't resolve your issue, you might want to run a diagnostic tool in the Microsoft 365 admin center to validate that a user is correctly configured for Direct Routing in Microsoft Teams.

I hope this helps,

Best regards, Ibhadighi

Answer 3

From the SIP logs you provided, it seems that the REFER message from MS Teams to SBC is being accepted. However, it’s not clear if the SBC is correctly handling the REFER message and initiating a new INVITE to the target of the transfer. Tour SBC (Session Border Controller) needs to correctly handle the REFER message from MS Teams. This involves accepting the REFER, sending an accepted response back to Teams, and then starting a new call to the transfer target. If this isn’t happening, you might need to adjust your SBC’s configuration or consult your IT department or service provider for further assistance.

Many thanks, Ibhadighi

Answer 4

Hello Ibhadighi,

thanks for the assistance.

In this case, there is no auto attendant used. Only the receptionist is using MS Teams and so there is no real need for an auto attendant.

I have some SIP logs here. I have removed IP addresses and domain names for privacy reasons.

So I made a call from +xxxxxxx206 (PSTN) to +xxxxxxx019 (MS Teams) and tried to transfer it to 3040 (Local PBX).
