Failover Based on Telephony Cause Codes

Gateway failure during an active call by disconnecting the PSTN cable.

Applications needing specific information about a call failure can use the cause codes reported by BfvLineTerminateCall(). However, using cause codes to determine failover scenarios is complicated. In most cases, the cause codes supplied by the gateway are manufacturer-specific and depend on the protocol being used.

Therefore, if you use any particular code in determining a failover scenario (where re-routing should occur), you should consider the context including the protocol and the gateway manufacturer.
