Prefix *22 that you can dial in front of a valid system extension to toggle the Follow Me

1

Lorne,

I found the following post when looking for an answer of how to toggle CFM from another extension. In the post you say " I have custom code that can do this. It creates a prefix *22 that you can dial in front of a valid system extension to toggle the Follow Me." and the guy you are helping acknowledges following your steps and having it “work perfectly”. Those steps are listed. Maybe private message?

Was wondering if you could share your solution?

Don

Hi @GlasairII :

I made your post public, I assume that’s okay.

The admin of that forum saw fit to purge all my thousands of posts, and I don’t have the dialplan any more. Perhaps a Samaritan here has a record of it.

Hi @GlasairII:

I’ve recreated what the referenced dialplan probably looked like. Place the following in extensions_custom.conf:

[from-internal-custom]
exten => _*22X.,hint,Custom:FOLLOWME${EXTEN:3}
exten => _*22X.,1,Noop(Entering context from-internal-custom in extensions_custom.conf)
exten => _*22X.,n,Set(AMPUSER=${EXTEN:3})
exten => _*22X.,n,Set(CALLERID(number)=${EXTEN:3})
exten => _*22X.,n,Goto(app-fmf-toggle,s,start)
exten => _*22X.,n,Hangup()

save, reload and test by dialing *22<ext#>
