function IsExternalRedirectionConfigured()
    PBXScript.OutputTrace "-------------> IsExternalRedirectionConfigured"

    local bReturn = false
    local tConfig = nil
    local sPublicLineAccess = ""

    tConfig = PBXScript.GetPBXConfig()
    sPublicLineAccess = tConfig.publicaccessprefix
    PBXScript.OutputTrace ("Configured public line access: " .. sPublicLineAccess)

    -- check forwarding
    if (PBXUser.UnconditionalRedirect()) then

        PBXScript.OutputTrace ("Unconditional call forwarding configured to " .. PBXUser.UnconditionalRedirectNumber())

        if (StringLeft(PBXUser.UnconditionalRedirectNumber(), StringLen(sPublicLineAccess)) == sPublicLineAccess) then
            PBXScript.OutputTrace ("External call forwarding configured")
            bReturn = true
        else
            PBXScript.OutputTrace ("Internal call forwarding configured")
        end

    else
        PBXScript.OutputTrace ("No unconditional call forwarding configured")
    end

    PBXScript.OutputTrace ("bReturn: " .. tostring(bReturn))
    PBXScript.OutputTrace ("<------------- IsExternalRedirectionConfigured")

    return bReturn
end

This function makes use of the Server Script API function PBXScript.GetPBXConfig() to get the configured public line access. Afterwards it uses PBXUser.UnconditionalRedirect() and PBXUser.UnconditionalRedirectNumber() to check if a redirection is enabled and configured to a number starting with the public line access. It also uses PBXScript.OutputTrace() to write trace information into the SwyxServer trace file. It also uses the GSE build-in helper functios StringLeft() and StringLen().

This function was converted from VBScript into Lua from the initially posted version in this forum topic.
