Redirection based on ANI 

    * You can match against calling number instead of called number.
    * This is a.k.a. "The ex-girlfriend filter" by the inventor of the routines
    * This pattern matches against called number (1410…) and also against calling numer (301…)

The ex-girlfriend filter = filtering unwanted calls based on number, vs. number dialed

Use the 'ex-girlfriend' option in extensions.conf. See this
http://www.voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=Asterisk%20config%20extensions.conf

BTW, does anybody know the history of why ANI-based routing is called
'ex-girlfriend' option? AFAIK, it has always been referenced that way,
both in the sample extensions.conf and docs, since the pre 1.0 days (if
my memory serves me right - as far back as 0.3).

Cheers.

Leo
