[asterisk-users] Questions about extension.conf

2012-11-29 Thread Shitian Long
Hello 

I have been reading the sample extension.conf

;###


[outbound-freenum2]
; This is the handler which performs the dialing logic. It is called
; from the [outbound-freenum] context
;
exten = _X!,1,Verbose(2,Performing ISN lookup for ${EXTEN})
same = n,Set(SUFFIX=${CUT(EXTEN,*,2-)}); make 
sure the suffix is all digits as well
same = n,GotoIf($[${FILTER(0-9,${SUFFIX})} != ${SUFFIX}]?fn-CONGESTION,1)
; 
filter out bad characters per the README-SERIOUSLY.best-practices.txt document
same = n,Set(TIMEOUT(absolute)=10800)
same = n,Set(isnresult=${ENUMLOOKUP(${EXTEN},sip,,1,freenum.org)}) ; 
perform our lookup with freenum.org
same = n,GotoIf($[${isnresult} != ]?from)
same = n,Set(DIALSTATUS=CONGESTION)
same = n,Goto(fn-CONGESTION,1)
same = n(from),Set(__SIPFROMUSER=${CALLERID(num)})
same = n,GotoIf($[${GLOBAL(FREENUMDOMAIN)} = ]?dial)   ; check 
if we set the FREENUMDOMAIN global variable in [global]
same = n,Set(__SIPFROMDOMAIN=${GLOBAL(FREENUMDOMAIN)}) ;if 
we did set it, then we'll use it for our outbound dialing domain
same = n(dial),Dial(SIP/${isnresult},40)
same = n,Goto(fn-${DIALSTATUS},1)

exten = fn-BUSY,1,Busy()

exten = _f[n]-.,1,NoOp(ISN: ${DIALSTATUS})
same = n,Congestion()

;##


According to 
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+config+extensions.conf;

Syntax for defining a context: keywords exten, include, ignorepat and switch. 
same is not mentioned in this wiki. 

There is a part of dial plan from sample extension.conf above. My Question is  
how same = key word works . 

Thanks

As I understand it, same = is a way to shorthand your list of the other
keywords. In the example you posted, you save 4 keystrokes for each line you
enter; not a lot of savings for this short example, but put it in a 1000+
line dialplan and it's quite a time-saver.

same is used for complex templates, if you
don't want to copy previous line or afraid you can make a typo. 

exten
= _1XXNXXX,1,Answer 

same = n,HangUp 

is the substitution for:


exten = _1XXNXXX,1,Answer 

exten = _1XXNXXX,n,HangUp 

Also, it
makes grepping the particular exten in a file a lot easier, and if you
want to change some template for exten which has 50 lines, you don't
have to edit all 50 of them.

Hope I have answered your question.

Not for me.
What part of those lines and comments discusses same?

What is the syntax for a same line? what does it mean to use same 
rather than exten?

The Wiki is (always) out of date.  You might consider taking a look at 
http://www.asteriskdocs.org/en/3rd_Edition/asterisk-book-html/asterisk-book.html#DialplanBasics_id262049
 which is likely less out of data.

Excellent.
It appears that Getting Started has a lot more stuff in it than the 
documentation for 1.8.


Very helpful.
