Correct me if I'm wrong, but doing this CID stuff in AEL may not make as much sense in terms of converting dialplans over as it seems. I say this, because with the original usage of the CID checking in the old extension language, you could base PRIORITIES on the CID, therefore changing only part of the actual extension logic. With how you're looking at it, that would effectively render an extension into two separate logical forms, which I know would definitely confuse people when converting the languages. Also, doing the CID checks inside the extension gives a larger degree of control, and makes the dialplan a bit more eligible. From an administration standpoint, you could have multiple EXTEN/CID's strewn about, but if you strictly use the in-extension checking, you know that *THIS* is the extension you're looking for, and *THOSE* CID's are the ones that are going to do something different.

Just my thoughts on the matter :) Hope they help a little.

Anything you need testing, let me know !

Yikes! I'm glad I didn't take the plunge into AEL2. Get #include
functionality, but lose cid in the dialplan. Hmmm.

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] AEL2 and CID


Does anyone know how to get CID working in AEL2 ?

In extensions.conf you can do:

exten => 111/666,1,PlayBack(demo-congrats)
exten => 111/666,2,Hangup()

exten => 111,1,PlayBack(demo-moreinfo)
exten => 111,2,Hangup()

and if callerid 666 dialed 111, they would get demo-congrats, everyone else gets demo-moreinfo.

In AEL:

  111 => {
                 Playback(demo-moreinfo);
                 Hangup();
         };

  111/666 => {
                 Playback(demo-congrats);
                 Hangup();
         };

does not work. It always plays demo-moreinfo.

I cannot find and docs on how to do this.

Anyone got any idea ?

Many thanks.

Julian


Douglas!! Now, now!! That is not the proper attitude!! ;^) AEL is still
in the formation, we'll look to see if this little problem can be
remedied.
