Hi guys,

I've got Asterisk setup and using X-Lite as a softphone for my extension, however I can't seem to dial anything with a * or # prefix...is this something I need to be setting in my dialplan or on the softphone settings?

I'm guessing it's the dialplan cause Asterisk is responding 404 not found, and it's not sending anything to WxC. Anyone have this working on Asterisk?

My extensions.conf:

[general]
autofallthrough = yes
static = yes
writeprotect = no
clearglobalvars = no

[globals]
VFXNUMBER = [Number removed]

[dialout]
exten => _X.,1,Dial(SIP/VFX/${EXTEN:0})
exten => _X.,2,Hangup

[from-sip]
exten => ${VFXNUMBER},1,Dial(SIP/jameswork,,120)
exten => ${VFXNUMBER},2,Hangup

[default]
include => from-sip
include => dialout

It's in your Asterisk dialplan settings. X-lite doesn't have an internal dialplan.

Mine does, (SIP Account Settings, Properties, Dialing Plan) and it's set to:

#1\a\a.T;match=1;prestrip=2;

But the dialplan is generic and passes everything through. No SIP invite is sent until you click on dial. I've certainly never changed anything to dial numbers beginning with * using X-Lite (or eyeBeam or Bria)

If you're trying to pass a number with a * or # at the start you need to have your Asterisk dialplan configured for this. Assuming what you have above is your only dialplan you have no provision for that. X. will only pattern match a number between 1-9 and then use the timeout period.

Added this to my dialout context and it works now, hurrah..

[dialout]
exten => _X.,1,Dial(SIP/VFX/${EXTEN:0})
exten => _X.,2,Hangup

exten => _.XX,1,Dial(SIP/VFX/${EXTEN:0})
exten => _.XX,2,Hangup
