asterisk users - Sep 2004 - let incoming callers contact a certain extension...

Hi everyone!

The following: Any calls coming in on extension 12121212 should get a 
message telling them to dial the extension of the person they are trying 
to reach, and then press #.
The call should then go to the entered extension.
This is as far as I got...

***********************************************************
exten => 12121212,1,Wait,1 
 

exten => 12121212,2,Answer 
 

exten => 12121212,3,PlayBack(welcome) 
 

exten => 12121212,4,PlayBack(if-u-know-ext-dial) 
 

exten => 12121212,5,PlayBack(then-press-pound) 
 

exten => 12121212,6,DigitTimeout,10 

exten => 12121212,7,ResponseTimeout,30
***********************************************************

Who can help me a little further on the way?



Regards,

HI.

I'm also a newby, so maybe this goes with no warranty, ;)

You must configure your sip.conf, iax.conf, zap.conf or the respective 
configuration file for the channel receiving the call and make 
[incoming_12121212] the context for that channel (incoming_12121212 is 
just an arbitrary name), then in your extensions.conf you must write the 
following:

[incoming_12121212]

exten =>s,1,Wait,1
exten => s,2,Answer
exten => s,3,PlayBack(welcome)
exten => s,4,PlayBack(if-u-know-ext-dial)
;; tilll here is the same you had, just changing 12121212 by s (which is 
the built-in exten for start)
exten => s,5,SetDigitTimeOut(10)
exten => SetResponseTimeout(30)
;; and then, deppending on how many numbers have your extensions, you 
could use something like this:

exten => _XXX,1,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN},60,r)
;; this is assuming your extensions have exactly 3 numbers (X matches 1 
digit)... that your extensions are SIP devices registered with asterisk 
and well configured...

Hope this helps.. at least will be a hint. If you send a more specific 
situation I could help you more.
