Currently, if an FXS channel is still off hook when all calls on the line have hung up, the user is provided reorder tone until going back on hook again. In addition to not reflecting what most commercial switches actually do, it's very common for switches to automatically reoriginate for the user so that dial tone is provided without the user having to depress and release the hookswitch manually. This can increase convenience for users. This behavior is now supported for kewlstart FXS channels. It's supported only for kewlstart (FXOKS) mainly because the behavior doesn't make any sense for ground start channels, and loop start signalling doesn't provide the necessary DAHDI event that makes this easy to implement. Likely almost everyone is using FXOKS over FXOLS anyways since FXOLS is pretty useless these days. ASTERISK-30357 #close Resolves: asterisk#224 UserNote: The autoreoriginate setting now allows for kewlstart FXS channels to automatically reoriginate and provide dial tone to the user again after all calls on the line have cleared. This saves users from having to manually hang up and pick up the receiver again before making another call.
