[Asterisk-Users] Using Blacklist

[Steven E. Frazier]

I am attempting to write in incoming context for calls.

1. If the caller id is given and it is not black listed it will Playback a
greeting and then right the phone or go to voicemail under busy or
unavailable conditions
2. If no caller id is given, then Privacy Manager will ask for the number.
I am testing 6145551212 to see if the black list will work
3. If a caller id is given, and it is blacklisted (in the blacklist db) I
would like for it to go to Playback/black-list-blocked message




The db shows:

asterisk*CLI> database show blacklist
/blacklist/<1010987/18887975686number>            : 1

/blacklist/<name/number>                          : 1

/blacklist/unlisted/6145551212                    : 1

asterisk*CLI>


exten => 2129,1,Wait(1)
exten => 2129,2,Zapateller(answer|nocallerid)
exten => 2129,3,NoOp
exten => 2129,4,PrivacyManager
exten => 2129,5,LookupBlacklist
exten => 2129,6,Dial(Zap/4,5,Ttr)
exten => 2129,7,Answer
exten => 2129,8,Wait(1)
exten => 2129,9,Playback(personal/hello)
exten => 2129,10,Playback(personal/i-am-not-in-at-the-moment)
exten => 2129,11,VoiceMail2(u${EXTEN})
exten => 2129,12,Hangup
exten => 2129,102,VoiceMail2(b${EXTEN}) ; Busy Voicemail if extension is
busy
exten => 2129,106,Playback,personal/black-list-blocked
exten => 2129,108,Wait(2)
exten => 2129,110,Hangup

When I dial my test extension of 2129, I get:


asterisk*CLI>

It goes to the unavailable voice mail box.

According to the documentation and my understanding:


LookupBlacklist: Looks up the Caller*ID number on the active channel in the
Asterisk database (family 'blacklist'). If the number is found, and if there
exists a priority n + 101, where 'n' is the priority of the current
instance, then the channel will be setup to continue at that priority level.
Otherwise, it returns 0. Does nothing if no Caller*ID was received on the
channel. 
Example: database put blacklist <name/number> 1


Could someone tell me what I am doing wrong that it won't go to Priority 106
and Playback black-list-blocked.

Would someone share their context that is using blacklist to show me how
they are doing it?

Thanks.
