[Asterisk-Users] indexing tables for dialing

[Jay Milk]

Two approaches come to mind -- 1) Using DBPut/DBGet to associate a fixed
amount of phone-numbers with a given extension and dial, all from
extensions.conf, or 2) Using a small mySQL table and a short agi script
to accomplish the same thing.  The former solution has the advantage
that it's rather easy to implement and won't require any additional
components; the latter is more flexible and could allow maintenance of
the forward numbers by, say, a website.
