I’m new to FreePBX and have been reading non-stop for a couple of days. I have a Trixbox 2.8.0.4 system with several SIP extensions, one SIP trunk and a DAHDI T1 trunk to a Nortel PBX.
I would like to route calls coming in the SIP trunk which match a pattern to the Nortel. I would also like to route calls from the Nortel out the SIP trunk if they match a pattern (e.g. 10 digits).
I’ve tried a bunch of things, but nothing seems to work.
Thanks in advance.

trixbox uses a very old, unsupported, end of life version of FreePBX.
Since you did not tell us what you tried it is had to say what you are doing wrong.
If you were running a current version of Genuine FreePBX you can simply use a trunk as the destination of a route.
In older versions (and trixbox) simply make an extension with a type of custom and use the /dahdi/xx/digits_to_send as the dial string. In this example substitute xx for the channel or group number and digits_to_send for the DTMF to outdial.
Thanks - that explains a lot. I didn’t understand the relationship between trixbox and FreePBX. I will take a look at installing a real FreePBX distribution in the future. Sounds like that might make things a lot easier.
In the mean time, thanks for helping with this.
I had tried creating a custom extension and using “zap/g0/nnnn” as the dial string (I also tried dahdi/g0/nnnn), but neither worked. sip/nnnnnnnnnn@siptrunk did work, though. I hadn’t tried using the leading “/”, so I just tried that (same results).
Looks like it’s trying to dial out the SIP trunk?
Here are a few lines from the CLI:

You need to see what channels you have. Do a ‘zap show channels’ and a ‘dahdi show channels’ and post the results.
dahdi_tool shows no alarms.
trixbox1CLI> zap show channels
No such command ‘zap show channels’ (type ‘help zap show’ for other possible commands)
trixbox1CLI> dahdi show channels
