[asterisk-users] Incremented UniqueId

[Guillaume Yziquel]

Hi.

I've been using the Asterisk Manager Interface to originate calls from 
Console/dsp.

I get the following form the server.

> Response: Success
> Message: Originate successfully queued
> Uniqueid: asterisk-3301-1252055630.26701
> 
> Event: Newchannel
> Privilege: call,all
> Channel: Console/dsp
> State: Down
> CallerIDNum: <unknown>
> CallerIDName: <unknown>
> Uniqueid: asterisk-1252055630.26702 

I'm really wondering how the Uniqueid works. Why is it incremented? What 
is the dot for in the Uniqueid?

Is there any thorough documentation on what the statements of the AMI mean?

All the best,
