Asterisk Config – Attempt 1

My first attempt at configuring Asterisk has finally been a success. I have started out with the sample configurations and have then emptied and re-written extensions.conf and sip.conf to setup my SIP users and dialplan … I have the following:

sip.conf

[general]

context=default

port=5060

bindaddr=0.0.0.0

srvlookup=yes

[guest]

type=friend

host=dynamic

context=guest

[user1]

type=friend

secret=password

host=dynamic

context=internal

[user2]

type=friend

secret=password

host=dynamic

context=internal

extensions.conf

[default]

exten => s,1,Playback(tt-weasels)

exten => s,n,Hangup()

[guest]

exten => 0,1,Zapateller(nocallerid)

exten => 0,n,Answer()

exten => 0,n,Background(vm-enter-num-to-call)

exten => 0,n,WaitExten(30)

exten => 1,1,Playback(tt-monkeys)

exten => 1,n,Goto(guest,0,1))

exten => 2,1,Playback(tt-monkeys)

exten => 2,n,Goto(guest,0,1))

exten => i,1,Playback(tt-weasels)

exten => i,n,Goto(guest,0,1)

exten => t,1,Playback(vm-goodbye)

exten => t,n,Hangup()

[internal]

exten => 1013,1,Zapateller(nocallerid)

exten => 1013,n,Dial(SIP/user1)

exten => 1013,n,Playback(vm-nobodyavail)

exten => 1013,n,Hangup()

exten => 1005,1,Zapateller(nocallerid)

exten => 1005,n,Dial(SIP/user2)

exten => 1005,n,Playback(vm-nobodyavail)

exten => 1005,n,Hangup()

As with the install I am sure this may not be the best way to do things and I have a lot still to learn about configuring Asterisk.

What I would like to get working is ‘Device and User’ mode which is a concept that exists in TrixBox separating the services from the users. So that a user can sign into any hardphone or softphone and their extension will follow them regardless of the device. However this doesn’t seem to be a trivial task using pure Asterisk … if I get it working I’ll post up the config.

Enjoy
