[Asterisk-Users] Regexten

[Joshua Colp]

It doesn't "execute" a command upon registration. What it does is insert a
simple noop into the extension and context at priority 1 so the extension
then becomes active. For example:

 

Before I register:

Exten => 145,2,Dial(SIP/jcolp_cisco1)

 

When I register it then turns into:

Exten => 145,1,Noop()

Exten => 145,2,Dial(SIP/jcolp_cisco1)

 

This means when I'm registered, a person can call me but when I'm not - the
extension is useless and calling it does nothing and doesn't attempt to call
me.

Before I play around with this again in 1.2.1, regexten is still essentially
broken, correct?

 

The misconception seems to be that it allows you to execute a command upon
registration from a SIP UA. Even the O'Reilly TFOT book erroneously states
that this is what it is for. After reading the developer discussion though,
it definitely seems to be broken. Is it fixed yet?
