Hi, It is possible to save all the phones numbers on asterisk servers instead of doing so manually in each VoIP device ? Does SIP take care of such configuration ? Thanks -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/attachments/20110904/8f48ad91/attachment.htm>

I mean the directory of phone numbers is stored within asterisk. So the SIP phone just fetch that list when it starts. ------------------------------ Message: 3 Date: Sun, 4 Sep 2011 19:47:00 -0400 From: Robert-iPhone <rhuddleston at gmail.com> Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Phone numbers and asterisk To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion <asterisk-users at lists.digium.com> Message-ID: <0D19DA7A-0766-4AE9-A967-528CCAE36945 at gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" what do you mean?

The format of the required configuration files, and how to name each one so that it gets picked up by the correct phone (the name is usually based on the MAC address of the phone) should be in the phone manual. You don't need to program speed dial numbers into each phone; just assign extensions in your dialplan. You can use an AGI script to perform a database lookup and set a channel variable, to save on repetition -- and have a web page which reads the same database, for your internal phone directory. -- AJS Answers come *after* questions.
