hi all

I have a few boxes in my setup, most connected to one or more PRIs.
Today, we're making the telco do the number filtering in the switch,
this number range to this PRI etc. This is all fine, but not too
flexible, as we're depended upon some switch monkey being available
to do the job, and sometimes the may mess up.

So, is it possible to do this in asterisk? For testing purposes, we
may say two asterisk boxes with one PRI each.

So, a few questions:

  - If the call received by asterisk from the PRI is sent to a number
not in the dialplan, what will asterisk do? Will the call be
cancelled, or will asterisk signal something back to the switch to
indicate "dunno about this, try another"?

Asterisk will do whatever you tell it to do. Here is a hint of what
you can do before you reject a number:

  - If the call is received by Asterisk from a wildchar extensions
like exten => _X.,1,......., will it be possible to signal the switch
"dunno about this, try another" later in the chain? Since Asterisk's

What do you mean by later in the chaim? Again the above link will sure
help you if you use some GotoIf($[${EXTEN}) logic.

current dialplan implementation does not scale wery well, we're doing
sip user/callerid lookups in mysql from an AGI script and the MYSQL

How does it not scale very well for the mentioned problem?

app from -addons. Anyway, this means we'll accept all incoming calls
before handling them (not answering, though, just accepting them to
the dialplan).

Thats how it should be, it takes all of some 2 ms (give or take some,
I might be off) to reject a call in the Dialplan which shuldn't be a
problem.


Thanks you
