You have to tell it the host to request the extension from. All you're doing is 
dialing SIP/*031600, which with that format, is going to try and call [*031600] 
as defined in sip.conf.

You're missing the host that you want to call. The format needs to be 
SIP/*031600@<some_hostname>

What you're trying to do is essentially what FreeNum was designed for:

We discuss it in this chapter here:
