Can anyone help with the use of regexten? (* 1.4.3)
I've got Asterisk creating extensions for my SIP phones using regexten
but I can't seem to figure out how to make use of them once they're
registered.
Here's my dialplan for from-sip (the SIP's default context):
asterisk*CLI> dialplan show from-sip
[ Context 'from-sip' created by 'pbx_config' ]
'98766' => 1. Dial(Sip/Tim) [pbx_config]
2. Hangup() [pbx_config]
Include => 'sip_autoreg' [pbx_config]
Include => 'widgets' [pbx_config]
-= 1 extension (2 priorities) in 1 context. =-
asterisk*CLI>
and here's sip_autoreg (the regexten context):
asterisk*CLI> dialplan show sip_autoreg
[ Context 'sip_autoreg' created by 'pbx_config' ]
'114' => 2. Dial(Sip/Tim) [pbx_config]
3. Hangup() [pbx_config]
[ Context 'sip_autoreg' created by 'SIP' ]
'112' => 1. Noop(Russell) [SIP]
'113' => 1. Noop(Richard) [SIP]
'114' => 1. Noop(Tim) [SIP]
-= 4 extensions (5 priorities) in 2 contexts. =-
asterisk*CLI>
Dialing 98766 from Sip/Russell rings Sip/Tim as expected.
Dialing 114 gives "Not Found" :-(
I'm very confused.... any ideas why this doesn't work?

Creating a context in your extensions.conf with the same name as your regcontext will cause all kinds of oddness to happen, among them this. What you need to do is have a differently-named context in extensions.conf with your 2-n priorities and include sip_autoreg in that.

When using autoreg, is there any way to extract the userid
somehow? IE:
SIP.com
regcontext=registrations
[123]
regexten=2125551212
extensions.conf
[phones]
include => registrations
exten => _212NXXXXXX,2,Dial(SIP/${VARIABLE}))
exten => _212NXXXXXX,3,VoiceMail(u${EXTEN})
Honestly I dont see the point of autoreg unless this can be
done...

The answer is no, but I'm not sure what you're expecting. This is no
different than if you weren't using regexten. You would still need a
way to map the DID to the proper device.

Well, I can't pretend to know how other people use it, but perhaps an example of how I use it would be helpful. Most of the sites that I maintain have a pair of boxes that are being loadbalanced (by UltraMonkey: www.ultramonkey.org), so I have no particular way of knowing who is registered to what box beforehand. Obviously, I need to know this. My solution is to use DUNDi and regexten. The DUNDi contexts are mapped into the context where the regextens take place (actually, it's the context where the 2 thru n priorities are, but the regcontext is included) and then I can just do a DUNDILOOKUP to found out the dialing information for any given device. It's simple, it works, and it's a good way to provide redundancy. I belive you may be expecting too much from regexten. It doesn't really do *that* much, but what it does do is useful.

There used to be an example on the voip-info wiki but its not there anymore. Would someone care to explain what regexten, in its current state, can do that the dialplan can't already do?
