<snip> No stupid question here, you've obviously done your homework. You should look up breifly in the docs about "contexts" and "extensions". According to the "context" line in your sip.conf, when those phones dial, they will be in context "sip". Go to your extensions.conf and check you have something defined there. What you'd expect is something like: [sip] exten => 6000,1,Dial(SIP/175polycom) exten => 6001,1,Dial(SIP/175polycom) exten => 6010,1,Goto(demo,s,1) ; Just for fun... Then they can use 6000 and 6001 to call themselves and eachother. This should be enough to get you started. -- Martijn van Oosterhout Ecomtel Pty Ltd _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
