[Asterisk-Users] newbiew extensions.conf question

[Tarpo, Louie]

He means that exten => 720,1,macro(sipexten,${EXTEN}) is the template.

You'd write out the rest of the config file like so
exten => 720,1,macro(sipexten,${EXTEN})
exten => 721,1,macro(sipexten,${EXTEN})
exten => 722,1,macro(sipexten,${EXTEN})

and so forth.

That would make all callers have to call 720 as there is not other extension
defined. As a result, all calls would go to 720. ${EXTEN} would always be
720.

I don't follow your logic.

Right track, but it can be simplified even more

exten => 720,1,macro(sipexten,${EXTEN})
