This would make sense in Asterisk, but FS differentiates between 'extensions' and 'users'. An extension is simply a destination for a number, with a set of conditions and actions. A user is still necessary if you want to register a phone or a soft client. Hence, FS vanilla only declares the extension once, but has multiple users that reference to it. Declaring the extension multiple times isn't necessary and has no effect since there is no user-no.xml to reference to it, so it fails. Simply changing the destination_number condition to match your number range and creating normal users (like the 1000 - 1019 that come with vanilla) is enough to do what you are trying to do.

The Freeswitch 1.2 book on PaktPub is well worth the coin if you have it, just to save many hours of tinkering and being trapped by 'Asterisk logic'. FS has built in heuristics for detecting guesswork and it exacts the most terrifying revenge upon the offender.

Hi Francis,
I have actually commented that out, and replaced it with multiple files, in the /etc/freeswitch/dialplan/default/ such as this, which I believe is the same as splitting out the vanilla local extension, that is, when 203 is dialled, FreeSWITCH would look through all of the .xml files until it found this code, and would then ring the extension?:

<include>
  <extension name="203">
    <condition field="destination_number" expression="^(203)$">

Close, that tells it to include the files you created, but it doesn't tell FS to actually recognize them when they are dialed. There is an extension in this file with a condition statement:

<condition field="destination_number" expression="^(10[0,1][1-9])$">

You should see some comments before the extension describing what it is and does. This extension has all the actions that are/can be executed when an internal endpoint is dialed. As you can see, the statement above uses PCRE to match the number dialed, and it needs to match your desired numbering scheme in order to work. Just make sure that when you modify it, that it doesn't clash with any of the other extensions in the dialplan, most of which are in this file. If you haven't already, have a sift though the wiki on dialplan settings:

Hi Franics,
When you say "recognize this numbering plan" do you mean this line?:

    <!--
        You can place files in the default directory to get included.
    -->
    <X-PRE-PROCESS cmd="include" data="default/*.xml"/>

Or am I missing something else?

Have you modified the file:

/etc/freeswitch/dialplan/default.xml

to recognize this numbering plan? If not, just saving extensions won't work.

Hi Francis,
It is a vanilla install, with the addition of extensions 201,202 and 203 all saved as seperate .xml files in /etc/freeswitch/dialplan/default/ directory

Is this the vanilla config of Freeswitch? Vanilla only recognizes extensions 1000 to 1019, unless you modify the match string in the dialplan.

Thanks for your help Matt.
Did I include a good enough sip trace in my first post?

Sorry to say but I think I may have to step out and let someone else see if they can offer some assistance.

thanks
