Hi Stanislav,

Thanks for the reply.

I am working in an open system, where the local extensions/gateways don't authenticate with Freeswitch, and hence I am forced to use the public context alone.

Again, since the gateway doesn't authenticate, I am unable to use the "variables" defined within gateway settings.

the scenario that you described is just ideal for two different contexts. Why do you want to have them in one?

Of course you can set a variable in an "inline" action in the beginning of a context, like this:
<action application="set" data="call_direction=inbound" inline="true"/>
and later in the dialplan, use this variable in conditions.
Also the variable can be assigned at the SIP gateway, then incoming calls will have it automatically:

<gateway name="gateway012">
   <param name="realm" value="sip.voipcarrier.com" />
   <param name="username" value="WBrandes" />
   <param name="password" value="myvoiceismypassword" />
   <param name="register" value="true" />
   <param name="caller-id-in-from" value="true" />
   <param name="ping" value="5" />
   <param name="ping-max" value="3" />
   <param name="retry-seconds" value="5" />
   <param name="expire-seconds" value="60" />
   <variables>
     <variable name="this_is_inbound_call" value="true" direction="inbound"/>
   </variables>
 </gateway>
direction="inbound" means to apply this variable for inbound calls.

Subject: [Freeswitch-users] Differentiating internal/external calls

Hi,

Is it possible for me to have two sets of dialplans - one for incoming (to FS) and other for outgoing (from FS), in the same context? On receiving an incoming call, I want to run through only a subset of xmls, and give up on not hitting, and the same for outbound - is this feasible? Or any channel variable that would help me differentiate between a external call and internal call?

Thanks!
