Hi Everyone,

Does any know how to implement sip username different from ext number with FreePBX?

Thanks

You can add any Asterisk peer command, including username using the sip_custom_post information http://www.freepbx.org/configuration_files

Here is a table with the SIP commands:

Thank you for the info SkykingOH but I am hoping to do this with in FreePBX UI.

I also tried “User & Devices Mode” from advance settings but still FreePBX doesn’t allow me to create a AlphaNumeric username.

If you could do it from the GUI I would have told you how!

It’s simple matter to add the + and the extension number and a username.

I don’t have any other options.

It’s also good to get over command line phobia.

Thanks SkykingOH

Found this http://www.freepbx.org/forum/freepbx/users/adding-parameters-to-a-gui-configured-extension

But for some reason adding this to my sip_custom_post.conf doesn’t work.

Did you read the docs I sent you?

That’s not all you have to do an username is deprecated.
