Custom "indications" entry for specific country

Asterisk Asterisk Support
1

Hello,
I’m reviewing an old PBX running Asterisk v11 to document the configuration and then upgrade to version 22LTS. This is my first time managing an Asterisk system, so I’m learning how it works.

While reviewing the configuration files, I found an indications.conf file for handling ringtones based on country. Currently, this system is configured for [us] United States/North America, and I can’t find a configuration for Colombia or South America among the options available in the same file or in the GitHub samples.

Is it possible to customize this for a specific country or, failing that, a region that’s more in line with reality?

Thank you very much for your answers.

Old school but you can find a somewhat relevant list here:

Yes, just add a new entry with the appropriate configuration. This may not actually make any difference though. These only apply if Asterisk is generating the tone. If SIP is involved then in many cases it is the SIP device itself that is generating the tone, and Asterisk has no control over specifying what it should do.
