[asterisk-users] FreePBX: using context other than the default context and the generation for the configuration

[bilal ghayyad]

Dear Warren;

I did not understand the example below well.

What the Verbose will do? It will write in the CDR or the database? Really this did not understand.

Also did not understand this lineL same => n,Goto(${EXTEN},from-internal,1) How it will work? Can u plz explain?

Regards
Bilal
