[asterisk-users] Call to an arbitrary outbound number by asterisk

Hi,

I have a strange problem. I have a TE110p digium card.

I want to dial 19173995791 when any incoming call comes in. What is
happening is that when I dial 19173-995791. Asterisk picks up the first 5
digits assuming it is the extension and appends 212-85 (here in the
university most numbers start with this) in front . Therefore I get
connected to some random number 212-85-(19173) (where the voicemail is
running).
I cannot understand why asterisk is doing this whereas my dialplan says it
needs to connect to other number
"exten => _.,1,Dial(Zap/g1/19173995791)"

Also any idea if this is an Asterisk problem or a telco problem. Any
help/hints/suggestions would be most welcome

Here are my files.

zapata.conf
context=incoming
switchtype=national
signalling=pri_cpe
group=1
channel=>1-23

extension.conf
[incoming]
exten => _.,1,Dial(Zap/g1/19173995791)

######### I have added this line in the dialplan is because I want it to
match the last 5 digit and simply dial the number 19173995791 such that a
call leg is established between the calling party and the number 19173995791

If you are sure that your university doesn't have a PBX, that's a telco 
problem.  Looks like that the switch has a dial plan that does not allow you 
to dial this sequence directly and interpret all dialed sequence as a local 
call. (This is usually the function of a PBX but ...)  What is this number 
19173995791, any way? (and what is 212-85?) If you attach a phone directly 
to a channel bank, would you be able to dial this sequence?

[asterisk-users] Call to an arbitrary outbound number by asterisk

If I had to make a wild guess, I'd expect that when you make a call
off-campus you must dial an access code first.

 

Looking at columbia.edu, I see that you're expected to dial '93' for
a local
number.

 

1+xxxx is a number in the Centrex dial plan for the Morningside campus.

 

http://www.columbia.edu/acis/telecom/tutorial.html#dialing

 

Asterisk is dialing all 10 digits, just as you expected it to.

 

Your dial plan is not prepending the '93,' so the campus
pbx/centrex/switch/whatever thinks you're dialing an on-campus number and
uses just the first five digits to complete the call.

 

As '917' is a local call, is the '1' required?
