How to avoid that a list of extensions calls another list

FreePBX Configuration
,
1

Hi, I’ve a PBX in which I’ve a double set of extensions, 2XX and 6XXX.
I need to avoid that one can call the each other so I’ve set in extension_custom.conf these rows:

[from-internal-custom]
;disallow calls from extensions 6XXX to 2XX
exten => _2XX/_6XXX,1,Hangup

;disallow calls from extensions 2XX to 6XXX
exten => _6XXX/_2XX,1,Hangup

saved the file and restarted asterisk but it seems that it doesn’t feel the commands. Any tips for me ?? Is there any other configuration step to do that I can have lost ??

Thanks for your support
Enrico

Try it without the “_” 's perhaps.
To test how 221 would react to any dialing affecting it , from asterisk’s CLI

dialplan show 221@

I can think of a couple of reasons why it might not work.

  1. a specific match will always take precedence over a pattern one.
  2. matches in an including context will always win over an included context, and I think matches in an included context will win over later included ones. What I’m not sure of is how FreePBX structures the inclusions.

I think you would have to define a new initial context, which does GoTo’s to from-internal for accepted calls.

Are you trying to create a multi-tenant system, as FreePBX is known not to be good for those.

Thanks dicko, I’ll check and answer you if I find something of what I wrote, anyway any other kind of way is good if useful to solve :slight_smile:

Hi David555 thanks, I know what you wrote about multitenant, it is a test that I’d like to solve.

Not sure that FreePBX would be a good fit if it’s multitenant you are looking at. There are other Asterisk based solutions that are better suited for this. iVozprovider is one

Thanks airsay, really I was only trying to solve a challenge about this question, ok for multitenant solution about which I know the power. Anyway to learn a new env I’ll try iVozprovider asap, always important to be updated !! thanks again
