Asterisk as UAC

Hi, very new to asterisk i am designing a system using asterisk 1.6.8.2 where i need Asterisk to register as a user agent client with an external SIP server so it can receive calls. Upon receiving the call it needs to redirect the call to another location. Is this possible and how best to go about this.

Thanks

hi,

it looks like that you are going to peer with the external sip server to receive incoming traffic. you could accomplish it via defining a trunk in sip.conf and forwarding inbound call to your desired device or extension in the extensions.conf.

Thanks Derek

Is it possible to have Asterisk have multiple SIP clients registered in this scenario and redirect the incoming calls for each one?

Yes. This is quite a basic function.
