Don't forget to handle the other special extension cases <https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Special+Dialplan+Extensions> in a [context]. What I find is a good practice is to write a root "catch-all" (template), then I tag that onto any new [context](template).
[Special-Extensions] exten -> a,1,NoOp(Where a call jumps when the caller requests the assistant) exten -> e,1,NoOp(Catchall where a call jumps with an exception on the call) exten -> h,1,NoOp(Where a call jump with a hang up) exten -> i,1,NoOp(Where a call jumps if an invalid extension is entered) exten -> o,1,NoOp(Where a call jumps when a caller requests an operator) exten -> s,1,NoOp(Where a call jumps to when a new call starts in a context if no extension is specified) exten -> t,1,NoOp(Where a call jumps if the user did not enter a response to Background or WaitExten) exten -> T,1,NoOp(Where a call jumps when it exceeds the absolute TIMEOUT value for a call).
