[Asterisk-Users] Setting variable for a context for all extensions?

[Mark Wormgoor]

Hi,

The problem is, that once I use:
exten => _.,1,SetGlobalVar(RING=r2)
it will never get to the extension anymore.  The following line is never
reached, because now all extensions need to be _.

[ext-local]
exten => 1,1,dial(Zap/1R{RING})

The only workaround I can find is to set the RING for every single
extension, which seems a bit ugly to me.

Kind regards,

Mark
