First off, I wanted to thank you for referring me to the O'Reily pdf.

It has already helped a lot and now I know exactly where I am going wrong,
but still do not have an answer!

 

Almost every example on voip-info.org and O'Reily assume you are using an
FXO or FXS card.

I am 100% internet based.

 

It hit me like a rock that I need to understand why this affects the
channels differently.

 

O'Reily states:

[incoming]

exten => s,1,Answer( )

exten => s,2,Playback(hello-world)

exten => s,3,Hangup( )

If you have a channel or two configured, go ahead and try it out! Simply
make a new

extensions.conf file with this short dialplan. (If it doesn't work, check
the Asterisk

console for error messages, and make sure your channels are configured to
send

inbound calls to the [incoming] context.)

 

 

Go figure! I am 100% SIP based and zero IAX and I am assuming this effects
how asterisk looks a Zapata.conf?

 

So,  this would lead to the logical conclusion that if I do not configure
incoming in Zapata, I configure it on the teliax authentication portion of
sip.conf!

 

It still didn't work.

 

I can see my phone number coming in on the CLI, but zero transition into the
basic commands of extentions.conf

 

Teliax got the thing to work before. They simply stripped out everything and
put in what appeared to be the exact example on their web site.

 

I was playing around with extensions.conf only and now it doesn't work at
all and the conceptual theory doesn't seem to apply when dealing with 100%
only SIP vs. FXx

 

So, can anyone point me into the right direction on documentation on
"understanding the differences of SIP vs. FXx?

Does anyone know where there is better documentation on understanding
context relations and priorities "with examples"?

Does tell me anything other than they point to each other. Not how or who
comes first or even how to get them to work with each other!
