asterisk users - Sep 2012 - inboun routing based on area aode

I am currently using AsteriskNow v2.  

What I am trying to accomplish is having all calls from an area code go directly
to the person responsible for that area.  While searching for a solution for
this I did come across a post that had a few examples.  So Josh at extension
1902 would receive all calls from the 808 area code.

	exten => s,1,GotoIf($${CALLERIDNUM:0:3}" = "808?1902|1)

While asterisknow uses freepbx to control the config files. Where and how would
I go about putting this into freepbx or another loaded config file that where
something like the above would work.  Thanks,
	/Josh

That's valid, and we use this methodology:

exten => (pattern match destination)/_800NXXXXXX,1,Voicemail....etc

You will usually get better answers for those products by going to lists
and forums dedicated to them.  I don't think anyone here uses those.

Josh,

You may want to look into using extensions_custom.conf along with Custom
Extensions, Custom Destinations, Miscellaneous Applications, and
Miscellaneous Destinations.
