[Asterisk-Users] Includes include the includes?

[Tarpo, Louie]

If you set up only internal extesions in the default context, then include default in [building1] and [office] all of those extensions can call internally.  I set up several standard features into the default context which everyone can access.

If you want to control feature access, say, for example a line that reads the time (let's just say), put that in a different context.

[office]
include => default
include => local
include => international
include => timeline

[building1]
include => default
include => local
 
[default]
exten => 700,1,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN})
exten => 100,1,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN})
exten => 200,2,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN})
;and so on for your other extensions

[timeline]
exten => something

Or, if you wanted to control access to who could call which internal extension, then you break out default into groups of their own.

[office]
include => office-ext
include => local
include => international
include => timeline

[building1]
include => building1-ext
include => office-ext
include => local

[office-ext]
exten => 700,1,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN})

[building1-ext]
exten => 100,1,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN})

In that example, office can call other office numbers, make local calls, make international calls, and access the timeline feature.  Building 1 can access building1 extensions, office extensions, and make local calls.

First, let me apologize for the multiple posts - my procmail recipe had a
bug that hid most mail form the list for a day.

The inheritance of includes creates a problem for me. I want to group the
extensions, not put them all in default to control access to features. So
[office] extensions should have the include => longdistance but  [building1]
should not.

However, how can [building1] then dial office?
