[asterisk-users] Realtime Extensions -- Comments?

[Joe Dennick]

Actually, you could just change to context.  If a context isn't 
established in the extensions.conf file, it won't every be included in 
the dial-plan.  As such, if you change the context on some realtime 
entries, they won't be included in the dial-plan.  Later, all you have 
to do is change the context back with a simple SQL UPDATE statement.
