I tried to create a call file to make a call via sip trunk, but it does not work.
This is my call file:
test.call
Channel: SIP/voipbuster
MaxRetries: 1
RetryTime: 60
WaitTime: 30
Context: outgoing
Extension: 1617xxxxxxx(us landline)
Priority: 1
I guess that there may be a context problem.
I have checked extensions.conf but there is nothing about “outgoing”. Should I add it in manually. I also have a question. I create a extension, 1001 using freepbx and there is nothing about extension 1001 in the extensions.conf. I am able to make a call using x-lite client via voipbuster with extension 1001.
Thanks in advance.
what is your call file supposed to do ? call an internal extension, then an external number ? if yes, then the Channel should be the internal extension.
do you have an [outgoing] context ? this is where the “call” will start, if it doesn’t exist, it doesn’t work.
did you create an Asterisk extension or a FreePBX extension ? Asterisk extensions are in extensions.conf, FreePBX “extensions” (really device entries) are in extensions_additional.conf.

Can I make an outgoing call directly without calling an internal extension?
Are Asterisk extension and freepbx extension different concept? Where should I define [outgoing]? extensions.conf or extensions_additional.conf?
Thanks
