[Freeswitch-users] How to call a non-user extension from "originate" [SOLVED]

[Raffaele P. Guidi]

uhm... does it?

freeswitch at W2GZ8VNR01> originate sofia/gateway/callwithus.com/fakecall 1001
....
API CALL [originate(sofia/gateway/callwithus.com/fakecall 1001)] output:
-ERR CALL_REJECTED


Anyway, I clearly understand that loopback allows to "hit the dialplan",
maybe I couldn't find it before because of my poor english (but googling for
"freeswitch hit the dialplan" doesn't help either). Really, I simply had
problems finding it - the information was there (is it a matter of SEO -
Search Engine Optimization ;)?

Regards,
    Raffaele
