Right track, but it can be simplified even more
exten => 720,1,macro(sipexten,${EXTEN})

You could create it where each extension is handled seperately
exten => 720,1,Macro(sipexten,720)
exten => 721,1,Macro(sipexten,720)
etc
or you could handle them all in a group with wildcards
exten => _72x,1,Macro(sipexten,${EXTEN})
then the macro would look something like....
[macro-sipexten]
exten => s,1,NoOp(${CallerIDNum})
exten => s,2,Dial(SIP/${ARG1},24)
exten => s,3,Goto(s-${DIALSTATUS}, 1)
exten => s-NOANSWER,1,VoiceMail(u${ARG1}) ;Send to
voicemail, play unavailable message
exten => s-NOANSWER,2,Hangup
exten => s-BUSY,1,VoiceMail(b${ARG1}) ;Send to
voicemail, play busy message
exten => s-BUSY,2,Hangup
exten => _s-.,1,Goto(s-NOANSWER,1)
Depends on your needs which way would work better. We define
extension by extension individually, then have a wildcard at the
end that plays a message that says the extension is not in use and
then puts them in our main menu. In case we have to remove or
change an extension individually.

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] newbiew extensions.conf question
I am newbie trying to setup about 12 Polycom Ip500's
on an asterisk server. I am working on my
extensions.conf and am trying to make it so that all
my extensions can dial each other. My extensions are
number 720, 721, 722, 723 ..etc
in my from-sip context I began doing entries such as:
exten => 720,1,Dial(SIP/720,20)
exten => 720,2,Voicemail(u720)
exten => 721,1,Dial(SIP/721,20)
exten => 721,2,Voicemail(u721)
..etc ..etc
This is not a big deal for such a small number of
extensions but I was thinking about larger installs..
this would begin to suck. Is there anyway around
this?
Thanks!
Kenny
