Hi, here's the output for zap show channels:

*CLI> zap show channels
   Chan Extension  Context         Language   MusicOnHold
 pseudo            default
      1            default
      2            default

At page 36 of "The Asterisk Handbook Chapter 4: The Asterisk
Dialplane",
you can read in "4.3.9 Outbound Dialing":

[directdial]
ignorepat => 9
exten => 9,1,Dial(Zap/g2/)
exten => 9,2,Congestion

Unfortunately I had already tried everything you suggested and it
didn't work.
Since I've already read a lot of docs, ;) , do you have any other
suggestion, please?

Thanks,

Alessandro
