[Asterisk-Users] Problems with auto dialout

[Tony Spencer]

Hi Tim

 

Thanks for the info.

I see what your example is doing.

However what if I want Asterisk to call someone that isn’t on the local
network?

So if someone is out and about they can be called on a mobile to let them
know something is down?

 

Tony

I'm a bit of newbie to Asterisk so I'm not to sure.

I was just given the task to try and make this work.

 

You could be correct but I'd have to do some further investigation and speak

to the person that used to admin this server.

 

All I want to do is call a phone number and play a audio file and hangup.

Is there a way of doing this by dropping a file in the outgoing queue or

even from a script/commandline..

 

Thanks

Tony

 

 

I have a simple system like this, the call file looks like:

 

Channel: Local/60 at default

Callerid: 01612370660

MaxRetries: 5

RetryTime: 300

WaitTime: 45

Context: serverdown

Extension: s

Priority: 1

SetVar: SITENAME=importantCustomerName

 

 

And the following in extensions.conf:

 

[serverdown]

exten => s,1,Answer

exten => s,2,Wait(1)

exten => s,3,Playback(serverdown/${SITENAME})

exten => s,4,Wait(10)

exten => s,5,Playback(serverdown/${SITENAME})

exten => s,6,Hangup

 

 

I have a file pre-recorded with a customer specific message in
serverdown/importantCustomerName.gsm

 

 

The trick with Local/60 at default is to distribute the call to multiple users:

 

[default]

exten => 60,1,Dial(Sip/bill&Sip/ben&Sip/flower&Sip/pot&Sip/weed,30)

 

 

Good luck,

 

Tim.
