Wrong, the short answer is maybe.

The method you describe is intrinsicly illogical. Assuming there is an IVR, how will I know which extension 2000 I am
calling if that were possible?
I might get company A instead of company B.



If you get this behavior in your IVR's then you need to redesign them. If what you say were true, I couldn't have a multiple level IVR where "1" takes to you another menu which has another "1" in it that takes me to another menu with another "1" in it! Also, remember that a DEVICE is NOT an EXTENSION!


You can create two * servers with identical dial plans, link them over
IAX, and allow users to call each other if they use a rpefix lke 7.
Example:  Comp-A user 2000 calls comp-B user 2000 by dialing 72000.


This would work, but why? Use contexts, that's what they are there for - dialplan 'partitioning'.


Now if you want to use one server only, then just use 200x for one
company and 300x for the other and segment the dial plans.

Again, this would work, but why? And now you've got a higher potential of CompanyA customers reaching CompanyB employees - not good.

Hi everybody,


<snip>

[2000]
username=companyA_2000
context=contextCompanyA

[2000]
username=companyB_2000
context=contextCompanyB

Any help will be appreciated.

Your example there should work with one minor change. Make the part in the brackets unique. Meaning [a2000] and [b2000] or similar. Then, from within your dialplan configure extension => 2000 in context [CompanyA] to dial SIP/a2000 and similar for CompanyB, making exten => 2000 in context [CompanyB] dial SIP/b2000.


This entire topic has been discussed multiple times on the list. Please read the archives, use google and the 'site:' argument.
