similar to: Dial 9 to get out?

Greetings, Currently my asterisk box is using Voicepulse. It works fine with the exception that people need to enter the 1+area code for local calls. I'd like to get around this if possible. The following is what I have in my extensions.conf.. exten => _1NXXNXXXXXX,1,Set(CALLERID(num)=6162997590) exten => _1NXXNXXXXXX,n,Dial(IAX2/${VOICEPULSE_GATEWAY_OUT_A}/${EXTEN}) exten

I've gotten this Polycom 501 pretty much licked, but I need to know if there's a way in a dialplan to say if someone dials their own extension it goes straight to voicemail and asks them for their password. I thought I saw an example of this on the web but I can't seem to find it. Any advice appreciated! Phil -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was

Hi all, I've gotten asterisk installed on Debian only to realize that the packaged version is 1.0.7. Is there a reason why they're not up to a 1.2.x release? I'm building a system for production and I'm wondering if I should remain at this old version or if there are any serious issues with 1.2.13 on Debian? Should I be able to do an apt-get from unstable and get 1.2.13 and

Does there seem to be a popular Linux distro folks use specifically for Asterisk? I'd like to move off of FreeBSD but I'm not too familiar with Linux distros. In particular, I'm looking for a free, stable, well supported distro that has a friendly community. Any advice appreciated. Sorry for asking a question that I'm sure has been asked thousands of times. Best regards,

Hey all, I've been doing a lot of playing, and a lot of reading, and it seems people are split as to whereas if they're running their favorite Linux distro and asterisk or Trixbox. I'm getting closer to really looking at a production environment and I'm just looking for any opinions. I'm really enjoying learning linux and asterisk, so initial "ease of use"

Hi all, I've got Asterisk 1.2.10 up and running on Debian using the back ports. I noticed that it didn't come with mpg123 or depend on it and I believe I read somewhere that asterisk now handles it's own mp3 playback? Is this true? If so I must have a problem, because I hear no music when putting someone on hold. When looking at the console when putting someone on hold, I see

Is it at all possible to set a Global Variable freely whenever a context gets used without having to enter an extension priority to use SetGlobalVar? This is really limiting the dialplan for me. Heres an example of what I would like to be able to do. [globals] AREACODE= [local] exten=_NXXXXXX,1,Dial(SIP/${AREACODE}${EXTEN}/blah) [anyoldcontext1] AREACODE=313 include=local [anyoldcontext2]

Thanks for your reply, [globals] AREACODE=381 [outbound] exten => _NXXXXXX,1,Dial(SIP/SIP-Provider/1${AREACODE}${EXTEN},80) did not work for me, any ideas?

Hi All, I have been attempting to get an AGI LCRdialout script to work. Basically what I need to have happen is when someone dials out a number the script check to see if it is local if so, go out the ZAP channel. If the ZAP channel is busy, go out the IAX channels, if IAX is all busy, go out the SIP channels. Here is a sample of what I have in my script. #!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use

Hi all, I'm trying to incorporate using the i extension in my callplan to determine if someone enters an invalid extension. My internal extensions are all 3 digits (100-104). The problem is, the callplan doesn't see that say, extension 600 is invalid, it just goes back to the beginning of the callplan and repeats. If I enter a single digit, it works perfectly. Anyone have any

Hi all ! We have 3 NTBAs which are all going to our existing PBX. Our areacode is 06003 and our DDI enabled number 9141. I want to exchange that PBX with Asterisk, but still struggle to get it working. My CAPI.CONF is currently like this: [general] nationalprefix=0 internationalprefix=00 rxgain=0.800000 txgain=0.800000 [interfaces] context=in-capi msn=60039141 incomingmsn=* controller=1

Users withing the office can dial a 3 digit extension and that will ring a phone. The problem I'm running into is you have to press xxx then press 'send or 'dial'. The pbx doesn't recognize a 3 digit number as an internal extension and automatically dial it the user has to initiate that call. Asterisk automatically initiates calls w/ 9+7 digits and LD calls,

i am using the freebsd port, which seems to not yet have WaitExten(), which i kinda want to use thusly [ext-666] exten => _.,1,SetVar(areacode=666) exten => _.,2,Background(zz-in-who) ; give them list of extns exten => _.,3,WaitExten(10) ; let them enter extn to call include => extensions include => applications include => speeddials

hi, on our incoming E1-PRI from german telco Arcor the leading 0 for the (area access code in europe) and the 00 (country accescode in europe) are missing on incoming callerids. only prepending a single 0 is not the solution as suggested by some writers on this list, because there is no way to differ between national and international callerids and it's not possible to make the decission

I need to insert/update multiple MySQL columns in a single row with the func_odbc function at the SAME TIME. Someone showed me how to use ARRAY to retrieve multiple values at the same time, but I need to SET multiple values. Can this be done? If not, I will just stick with MySQL, but that's a pain in the ass because the asterisk-addons package has no default rpm spec file for building an

We have now got our new PRI line (10 channels, 100 numbers) connected and everything is working except the outgoing caller ID. Whatever SIP phone I'm using, the CID that's shown is the very first number... ----- s n i p ----- [default] include => outgoing include => priin [outgoing] exten => _NXXXXX.,1,Macro(dial,08${EXTEN},${RINGTIME}) ; Local number (w/o areacode) -

All, I've asked this once a long time ago and got a vague response, any suggestions? I'm wanting to convert for example a 7 digit extension (whether it be via dialplan or agi) to e.164. This is for the sake of getting everything outbound into e164 format. The issue I see you will need to append the areacode of the calling party to the 7 digits, from there adding a +1 is of course easy.

Hi all, I've been beating my head against this for some time now. For incoming calls, I'd like to send my users a "localized" caller id number. By "localized," I mean one with out the 1+areacode for local calls and only 10 digits (minus the leading 1) for long distance calls. For example: I get a call from 15055551234. Since I live in the 505, I should see:
