asterisk users - Dec 2006 - Asterisk Manager

Hello,

I am not an asterisk expert but i am developing a web application that
is using asterisk. I would like to know if it is possible to configure a
Manager to only monitor a special
extension, and of course how to do that.

The application is written in java and is using asterisk-java. Right now
i have one manager that i am connected to and i receive all the events
but i would like to have some kind of administrator
and user. The administrator manager can receive all events but the
normal user (agent) should only receive the events that are associated
to its extension.

I would have some kind of user 1010 (the actual extension and username too)
Let's say that in manager.conf i would have again some user 1010 but i
would like that this user can only see the events associated to the
extension 1010 ...

Does it makes any sens, and how to do that?

Regards,
Daniel

I am pretty sure that using the proxy, astmanproxy, you can achieve this
goal. It is recommended to use the proxy so that there is only one
connection to the server and all the other applications will connect to
the proxy.

Not meaning to argue with you but the proxy replaces the manager
interface so it could most likely be a seamless replacement to your
application. It was for all but one of my applications and the problem
there was in the way I parsed the startup string.

The manager doesn't have any filters - per-se.
You would need to add a layer in your asterisk-java program that  
filtered
the channels/extensions you were interested in.
The easiest thing might be to have your manager layer put the
events into a lightweight (in memory?) database, then use some standard
JDBC/servlets (or whatever) to query those events using the
channel current user's as a key.

Now, depending on what you are trying to do, there may be other ways
to get there....

Hi

i am trying to record a call with

exten = 9,1,Answer
exten = 9,2,Monitor
exten = 9,3,Dial(SIP/200)

This will record the call, but asterisk generates 2 files in
/var/spool/asterisk/monitor/

....-in.wav
....-out.wav

Can i have only one file?
Can i customize the path where to save the files?

Thanks

Your line number nine should also specify a file name to monitor to and the
format, like this

exten = 9,2,Monitor(from-${CALLEDID}-at-${TIMESTAMP},wav)

or better yet, use MixMon instead, because this will merge the two files into
just one.  (both sides of the call)
