[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk hints

[Garth van Sittert]

Hi Mike

I have build 18 on the IP10's and I have tried call-limit=1 but it still 
doesn't work.
Do the extension phones need to have any settings changed to enable this 
feature?

Here is my sip.conf:

[11]
    callerid="Reception" <11>
    username=11
    secret=pbx
    type=friend
    host=dynamic
    dtmfmode=rfc2833
    mailbox=11
    subscribecontext=internal
    callgroup=1
    pickupgroup=1
    notifyringing=yes
    qualify=yes

[12]
    callerid="Boardroom" <12>
    username=12
    secret=pbx
    type=friend
    host=dynamic
    dtmfmode=rfc2833
    mailbox=12
    callgroup=1
    pickupgroup=1
    call-limit=2
    notifyringing=yes
    qualify=yes

And a snippet of extensions.conf:

[internal]
    exten => 11,hint,SIP/11
    exten => 11,1,Macro(dial-extension,11)

    exten => 12,hint,SIP/12
    exten => 12,1,Macro(dial-extension,12)

    exten => _0X.,1,Macro(dial-external,${EXTEN:1})             ; 
External calls


How does the hints work?  Do you know anything about the flow?

Thanks
Garth
