[asterisk-users] Channel names

[Ishfaq Malik]

Hi

I'm using asterisk 1.8.

How are channel names constructed. I always thought they were

<technology>/<peer>-<hex counter>

but I've had a lot of instances where a channel name doesn't have the
correct peer as part of it.

Is it unwise to use channel names to extract the peers involved in a call?
