[asterisk-users] Only secretary can call the boss, all others only reach the secretary when dial the boss extension

[Ioan Indreias]

Maybe you could use something like:

exten => boss_ext,1,GotoIf($[${CALLERID(number)}=secretary_ext]?boss:secretary)
exten => boss_ext,n(boss),Dial(SIP/boss_ext)
exten => boss_ext,n(secretary),Dial(SIP/secretary_ext)
