[asterisk-users] Call to an arbitrary outbound number by asterisk

[Arpit Mehta]

Hi,

hi,

19173995791  is some number which I want to dial. 212-85- all/most of the
numbers in my workplace start with this - so I presume it has got to do
something with this.
thanks for your suggestions

regards
arpit
