Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Length of dial string

Hi Paddy!

This used to be 80 characters total (including all characters like channel
type, '&' and '/'. Had the same issue in the past where I
extended that in
the code and recompiled.
>From what I understand there is basically no longer a hard limit in Dial
since the recent change in the latest versions other than a single device
must not exceed this but you can concatenate any number of them within the
Dial string.

    Hi all

    as per the new release notice for 13.33.0 received today - can anyone
advise
    me the max limit of the string to the Dial Command - see

    		dial (API): Storage of dialed target uses AST_MAX_EXTENSION
    when it shouldn't

    I have been fighting with this issue for months trying to find a
solution I
    need to call 20+ devices at the same time so dial strings are very long
I
    cant really use a queue(ringall) which was my original idea as the
customer
    needs different groups for virtually every call some of which are simple
sip
    devices and others have to be local devices (Internal and External
CLIs).
