Hello -
I've read Asterisk should be able to activate a do not disturb feature
to turn off the ringers on extensions. I checked the wiki and can't
find documentation for how to do it.
Here's my attempt, added to extensions.conf:
[dnd-on]
exten => _#78,1,Answer
exten => _#78,n,Wait(1)
exten => _#78,n,Macro(user-callerid,)
exten => _#78,n,Set(DB(DND/${CALLERID(number)})=YES)
exten => _#78,n,Playback(do-not-disturb&activated)
exten => _#78,n,Macro(hangupcall,)
[dnd-off]
exten => _#79,1,Answer
exten => _#79,n,Wait(1)
exten => _#79,n,Macro(user-callerid,)
exten => _#79,n,dbDel(DND/${CALLERID(number)})
exten => _#79,n,Playback(do-not-disturb&de-activated)
exten => _#79,n,Macro(hangupcall,)
;further down
include => dnd-on
include => dnd-off

Monitoring asterisk from the CLI, when I dial #78 on an extension, I
just get a fast busy signal and this information is reported on the
CLI:

Any tips?
All I really want to do is turn off the ringers / do not ring
extenstions when I've activated DND. Right now I'm just using a hack
which is to shutdown asterisk altogether when I don't want the phones
to ring, which of course also prevents dialing out, it's a
sledgehammer approach and I'm looking for something more typical.

Apart from that, what you do is good. Right before you Dial() to a user you need to check the value you have stored in DB(DND/${EXTEN}) and if it's "YES" simply do not Dial().

Brian,
DND is not real hard. You basicly want to to note the extension is set to
DND and then when someone calls that extension you check for DND status and
if it is yes then you go on to voicemail instead of dial. It sounds like you
are miss understanding the dialplan and how to use it. In your sample, do
the macros user-callerid and hangupcall exist? Do the sound files you
specified exist in var/lib/asterisk/sounds? A simple DND would look like so:
exten => *73,1,Answer()
exten => *73,n,Wait(0.5)
exten => *73,n,Set(DB(${CALLERID(number)}/DND)=1)
exten => *73,n,Playback(do-not-disturb)
exten => *73,n,Playback(enabled)
exten => *73,n,Hangup()
and then
When someone calls say extension 1000 I would have a macro check for :
exten => s,n,Set(DNDStatus=$["${DB(1000/DND)}" = "1"])
<= returns a 1 if
enabled or a 0
exten => s,n,GoToIf($[${DNDStatus} = 1]?DND)
exten => s,n(DND),Voicemail(1000@default,u)
