If the system has been running a long time with many calls, it could
be <long_number>.<long_number> :-)
The first ("long") number is the Unix time_t timestamp (number of seconds
since 00:00:00 GMT on 1 Jan 1970) of when the channel was created.
The second ("short") number is a sequence number, starting at 0 for the
first created channel since Asterisk started up, and incrementing by 1
for each subsequent channel.
In Asterisk 1.4 or later, an optional system name can be defined in
asterisk.conf, and if defined, the unique ID becomes:
<system_name>-<timestamp>.<seq_num>
