[Asterisk-Users] Directed Call Pickup

[Garth van Sittert]

Ok, I think I am getting somewhere.  When I am ringing extension 200 I 
do a show channel SIP/200 and this is what I get:

-- General --
           Name: SIP/200-b699
           Type: SIP
       UniqueID: asterisk-2177-1138957721.175
      Caller ID: s
 Caller ID Name: (N/A)
    DNID Digits: (N/A)
          State: Ringing (5)
          Rings: 0
   NativeFormat: 8
    WriteFormat: 8
     ReadFormat: 8
1st File Descriptor: 28
      Frames in: 1
     Frames out: 354
 Time to Hangup: 0
   Elapsed Time: N/A
  Direct Bridge: <none>
Indirect Bridge: <none>
 --   PBX   --
        Context: internal
      Extension:
       Priority: 1
     Call Group: 2
   Pickup Group: 2
    Application: AppDial
           Data: (Outgoing Line)
    Blocking in: ast_waitfor_nandfds
      Variables:
DIALEDPEERNUMBER=200
SIPCALLID=3a02485322ebf7b26d925550059da76c at 192.168.1.2

There is no value for Extension:. Is this normal?  If not, how is it set?

My sip.conf:

[general]
    port = 5060
    bindaddr = 0.0.0.0
    canreinvite=no
    disallow=all
    allow=alaw
    context=internal

[200]
    callerid=Reception <200>
    type=friend
    host=dynamic
    dtmfmode=rfc2833
    username=200
    secret=pbx


Kind Regards
Garth
