Typing off the top of my "1.2 Luddite" head (meaning I use an "obsolete"
version of Asterisk and the code is "untested, proceed at you're own
risk"), I'd:
1) Add a "verbose" at the start of the contexts to show what's going on.
2) Save the incoming number in the first context and then use "s" for
clarity and maintainability.
3) Use "n" for clarity and maintainability.
4) Reformat for "readability" -- which may not render well in all mail
clients :(
So I'd suggest:
; All calls start here
[from-ITSP]
exten = _x.,1, verbose(1,[${CONTEXT}:${EXTEN}])
exten = _x.,n, set(DNIS=${EXTEN})
exten = 2125551111,3, goto(companya,s,1)
exten = 2125551112,3, goto(companyb,s,1)
exten = 2125551113,3, goto(companyc,s,1)
exten = _x.,3, verbose(1,Un-configured DNIS - ${DNIS})
exten = _x.,n, hangup()
; Cruft for companya
[companya]
exten = s,1, verbose(1,[${CONTEXT}:${EXTEN}])
exten = s,n, ...
exten = s,n, hangup()
; Cruft for companyb
[companyb]
exten = s,1, verbose(1,[${CONTEXT}:${EXTEN}])
exten = s,n, ...
exten = s,n, hangup()
; (end of /etc/asterisk/extensions.conf)
