You need to create [new_context] in extensions.conf then add the context=new_context to sip.conf so calls from from the sip devices know which context to use. this can be in the general section and apply to all sip devices, or add per device and each can have its own context just adding to sip.conf will not result in a call On Mar 23, 2006, at 1:18 PM, Larry Alkoff wrote: It _appears_ that the only way to create valid [context] is by a context = line in sip.conf.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] How to create [new_context] in extensions.conf?
I've tried adding [new_context] with extens defined in extensions.conf but they are not recognized or dialed out. Are you saying I can add various context=new_context1 context=new_context2 etc lines in sip.conf [general] and that's all there is to it? I'm not sure what you mean about per device in sip.conf. Are you talking about a [users] context? Another thing I don't understand about.

Larry Alkoff wrote: What do I have to do to dial an exten - with the dial command in it? Asterisk isn't recognizing commands in my newly created [context]. You must send the call into the context. That can be done in the following ways: a. Device context - e.g. in your sip.conf. You have something like: [myuser] context=mycontext When you register your sip phone with the myuser account, it will be placed into [mycontext]. When you dial from that phone, you can only reach the extensions in [mycontext] (and its included contexts). E.g. [mycontext] exten = 900,1,Playback(demo-echotest) ; Let them know what's going on exten = 900,n,Echo ; Do the echo test exten = 900,n,Playback(demo-echodone) ; Let them know it's over exten = 900,n,Goto(s,6); Start over In this example, myuser can only call 900 which is in it's context. b. By including the context in another context. E.g, to make [EMAIL PROTECTED] available to [default] context: [default] include = mycontext This will allow any device in the [default] context to reach 900, as if it's part of the [default] context. c. By using Goto. Eg. to simulate the example in b. without the include syntax. [default] exten = 900,Goto(mycontext, 900, 1) d. It's also possible use the Dial string for IAX2 to dial directly into a context. See the example from the sample extensions.conf: exten = 500,n,Dial(IAX2/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]) Hope this helps.
