Abstract
Methods, systems, and media to capture a redialing sequence and to redial a phone or similar device are disclosed. Embodiments may capture a dialing sequence of a caller and provide access to the dialing sequence, or redialing sequence, when the caller desires to re-establish a telephone connection. More specifically, embodiments recognize a significant pause in a dialing sequence by a caller and associate the pause with a line event such as a circuit event or an audible event, or a length of time. Some embodiments comprise resource managers and agents of the resource manager may monitor a line, and identify, interpret, and/or route the line events to an application server to capture a redialing sequence or replay the redialing sequence to re-establish a telephone connection. Other embodiments incorporate security measures to protect private data and error detection to determine when a redialing sequence is invalid.
