- It appears that the extension used with the "hint" must be the same as the

not. Why is that?
The extension is how asterisk maps SIP URLs to chunks of your dialplan -- if you program a button on a snom to "dest <sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>", the phone will use that same URL for both dialing and subscribing to extension state. Unless you have a phone that lets you specify different URLs for dialing and subscribing to state, they have to match in asterisk.
- If I am correct in the above, then there is no way for me to monitor a
channel that is not an extension. As an example, I have a TDM400 with 3 FXS
(Zap/1-3 on extensions 21-23) and 1 FXO (Zap/4) as well as a VoIP channel
for dialing out. I can monitor the states of the extensions with extension
entries like "exten => 21,hint,Zap/1" but I cannot monitor the state of the
FXO with "exten => 0,hint,Zap/4" because 0 is not the extension of Zap/4.
Indeed, Zap/4 has no extension. Is it not possible to monitor that line,
then?
There has to be a SIP URL for the phone to subscribe to -- if you put:
exten => zap4,hint,Zap/4
in your extensions.conf (with no zap4,1,... entry) it wouldn't be dialable (although the phone would still try if you pushed it) but would have a valid SIP URL.
