Contexts is the concept you're missing here.  What context is the usb phone
in when it starts to dial?  This is where the extensions would need to be
defined.  Contexts can be a little different for some to understand, you
should read the Asterisk handbook or poke around http://www.voip-info.org to
get an understanding of how extensions (dialing plans, really) are exposed
to individual hardware devices.  This is how Asterisk implements its
security to only expose certain dialing patterns to designated phones.

hi,
I got a digit networks x100p card and instaled asterisk. everything went
fine and upon calling the phone  asterisk issues a notification. Now i plan
to turn it into an ivr and modified extensions.conf to first record some
messages , problem is 1-)I am not able to understand how extensions refer to
in my case ( a single analog phone line plugged into line jack and a phone
into the phone jack , the usb has another normal phone attached to it
through a usbfxo) provided with the starter kit.
I tried adding a 9205 extension so as to record my messages but am clueless
on how to reach this extension...dialing 9205 from any of my 2 phones( usb
and one through the phone slot in x100p) does not help( was a wild idea ..i
know ) ... this is what i added to my extensions.conf...
#################
Exten => 9205,1,Wait(2)
Exten => 9205,2,Record(/tmp/asterisk-recording:gsm)
Exten => 9205,3,Wait(2)
Exten => 9205,4,Playback (/tmp/asterisk-recording) Exten => 9205,5,wait(2)
Exten => 9205,6,Hangup ##################

2-)there was a error message regarding the sound card which i got rif of by
using noload=> oss  .
How can i hear any default messages stored with asterisk ( if any) through
my phone.....and which one should i use ..the one connected to usb or the
one connected to phone jack on the card ..?

Any further help/guidance on IVR is gladly appreciated...
thanks
digvijay
