[Freeswitch-users] Conceptual/design question - per gateway/DTMF & PSQL

[Mike Taylor]

Thanks both for the pointers,

I've got close to 60 gateways under my internal profile, so tweaking the 
database is definitely preferable to editing xml files (for me)

I've found some excellent documentation on lcr.conf.xml, custom SQL 
queries, and exporting extra variables.
  I tested, then modified my default mod_lcr query, just to simplify 
things, extended my carrier.gateway schema, and successfully (according 
to debugs, set several dtmf related variables.

So it looks like it might be working in the lab, on Git (about a week 
old), so I'll see what happens with more testing (which options work 
etc). I'm not clear on dtmf and dtmf_relay interaction, so that'll be 
the next thing to nail I think.

Hopefully, once this works, I can offer all sorts of options.

Thanks again, excellent help, your replies let me search for what I needed.

Regards,
Mike
