Harry,

The context is created in the running dialplan.
It's not stored in a configuration file.

You can however create this context in extensions.conf or  
extensions.ael and asterisk will use that.
Basically how it works is:
On a sip register asterisk checks if the regcontext exists. if not it  
will create it, if it exists asterisk will add the regexten to it.
