asterisk users - Jun 2006 - Subject: Passing DID to external number?

For the DID's the easiest way for you to trasmit the incoming DID is to
create custom extensions for the external numbers that access the external trunk
directly. (e.g. they should NOT go to Loca/xxxx. or it will not retain the
orignal CID in freepbx- which is effectively how it is being sent when you put
xxxxx# in the ring list).

As far as why it is only ringing one of your external numbers, I can only guess
(with the limited information) that you may only have a single outbound channel
available on your trunk so the second number is getting rejected? (Look in the
log and see if it tells you that or if not provides additonal clues).

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Passing DID to external number?

     Hi,
  
 We run a small  switchboard using Asterisk and Free PBX.
  
 We have two main  extensions and two ring groups. The first ring group rings
the two internal  extensions. If the internal extensions do not pick up the call
after 15 seconds  then the second ring group kicks in which should ring the two
internal  extensions plus two external numbers.
  
 Firstly, how do I  pass the DID number of an incoming call to the external
number so that the  external number sees the incoming number and not the voip
dial out  number?
  
 Secondly, when the  second ring group kicks in only one of the external numbers
dials when both  internal extensions and both external numbers should ring
according to the ring  group setting. Any ideals what's going wrong?
  
 Kind  regards
  
 Brian.  UK
