Description:	On of my agents made a mistake while logging in to the Queue system, and entered another agent's extension. Asterisk allowed that, and the first agent was then able to receive two calls from the queue, on that was actually for him, and the other one that was on behalf of the agent that made the mistake. Shouldn't Asterisk block the second agent in case he tries to login using an extension that is already in use by other agent?
Comments:	By: Olle Johansson (oej) 2006-01-09 14:09:56.000-0600 Good question - any one that knows how chan_agent handle multiple logins? /Housekeeping By: Matt O'Gorman (mogorman) 2006-01-10 22:11:26.000-0600 I think this should be allowed behavior, even though in most cases it is probably a mistake. By: Peng Yong (ppyy) 2006-01-11 07:29:16.000-0600 here is a patch, pls check it By: Matt O'Gorman (mogorman) 2006-01-11 07:58:06.000-0600 nice work ppyy.  but like i said it might be intended behavior for this to happen.  I think it should be specifiable in global or by agent.  something like multipelogin=yes|no If you want to add that ppyy it would be awesome otherwise i can get to it today. By: Dov Bigio (dovb) 2006-01-11 08:06:08.000-0600 This would mean that if "multiplelogin=no", only one agent (the first who logged in) can answer through one unique extension. If another agent wants to answer through that extensions, the first one would have to logoff first, right? By: Peng Yong (ppyy) 2006-01-11 08:40:44.000-0600 multiplelogin added. can you add multiplelogin to configs/agents.conf.sample? my english is poor, and can't express it clearly By: Matt O'Gorman (mogorman) 2006-01-11 09:05:04.000-0600 no. dovb.  the current behavior of agents is this.  one phone can be using multiple agent ids, ie i could be logged in as agent 6287 and 6288 from my phone.  However multiple people can not be agent 6287 as is.  This patch will give you the option of limiting me to only use agent 6287.
