Are you trying to dial in and test your IVR? You can actually do most of it from within Asterisk's dialplan by initiating a call by dropping a text file in the outbound queue, /var/spool/asterisk/outgoing -- make sure you do a 'mv' across the same filesystem, not a 'cp', as Asterisk can pick up the file mid-way through a disk write.
The contents of the file would look like: Channel: Zap/1 MaxRetries: 1 WaitTime: 30 Context: testplan Extension: s Priority: 1 Where Zap/1 is your FXS port (I think you can dial out an FXS port...), and your dialplan would then look something like: [testplan] ; Try to navigate through the IVR exten => s,1,SendDTMF(4) exten => s,2,Wait(1) exten => s,1,SendDTMF(3) exten => s,3,... exten => s,n,DBput(testplan/ivrstate=ok) ; Write something to the asterisk db exten => s,n,AGI(record_result_somewhere.agi|values...) ; or call an external program ; This is a special extension (see voip-info page below) exten => failed,1,DBput(testplan/ivrstate=fail) exten => failed,2,AGI(send_alert.agi) Helpful info on the subject: http://www.voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=Asterisk+auto-dial+out On 5/10/07, gcc gcc <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Can someone please kick start me on the procedure of a shell script for asterisk to dial through FXS ports to FXO ports in order to test the FXO port during a period of time. I would like to make asterisk dial certain extensions through FXO or FXS.
