This might be fairly easy to do. Combined with wildcard dialing that might bring us closer to the desired result.

Ring all the devices that registered with the same credentials. I could be wrong but I think this is somewhat common with other sip proxies (I know I know! Asterisk is not a proxy!). For example, I've been told SER allows this which I think is one of the reasons a lot of providers use SER in front of Asterisk.

The not-so-easy part (to me at least) is how to make this dynamic - e.g. buy a new _device_, configure with appropriate credentials, and have it dynamically (i.e. as it registers/unregisters) linked to a certain extension together with the other devices in the group without having to modify the dialplan. If there is a well known trick to achieve this, it would be surely worthwhile documenting it in sip.conf or some other prominent place. It would cut a lot of questions. cheers luigi ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-dev mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-dev

Of course it's possible (in theory). Asterisk is software, software can
be programmed to do anything people want it to do.

In spite of the fact that it is possible, we have no plans nor desire to
make this change. Asterisk treats SIP devices as _devices_, which means
it needs to be able to handle them individually. Turning devices into
_extensions_ is the responsibility of the dialplan, where it is very
very easy to do what you want to do (as your example shows).
Part of your problem is that you are making an assumption that your SIP
device identifiers have to be the same format (and come from the same
number space) as your extensions ("dialplan numbers"). This is a faulty
assumption; they are completely unrelated and generally using the same
numbers in both places only causes confusion. Your SIP devices can be
called anything you want (many people use device MAC addresses or
portions of them for hardphones, for example), and the extensions can be
numeric as you have shown.

[asterisk-dev] SIP Multiple endpoints with same id
Hi all! Is it possible (in theory) to make asterisk server multiple sip endponts configured with same sip credentials. For example if i have in sip.conf [0001] canreinvite=yes type=friend secret=secret username=USER callerid="USER" <0001> host=dynamic Is it possible to have two or more hardware or software sip phones configured with this entry? I tested that asterisk allow to register more then one endpoint with same credentials and allow outgoinc calls from them, but will route incoming call to last registered one. Why not to keep information about all such sip endpoints and route incoming calls to all devices with same sip credentials. This situation is helpfull when i have more then one sip phones (for example softphone on pc SIP/0001, hardware desktop sip phone SIP/0002, and mobile wifi sip phone SIP/0003) and nowtime i need to configure them with different sip numbers (and configuration entry in sip.conf) and have a special dialplan in case i want to route any call to me on all this devices. If asterisk can support multiple sip enpoints with same credentials i have simplify routint to them with simple Dial(SIP/0001) instead of Dial(SIP/0001&SIP/0002&SIP/0003) command and save dialplan numbers (one instead of three in my case). Thanks for any comments.
