Michael Collins gave me a suggestions a while back: I looked in mod_openzap.c and I didn't see any references to channel variables. However, you have context and dialplan options. I suggest that you create a dialplan context just for your FXS port(s). Try this. Create conf/dialplan/fxs-ports.xml: <include> <context name="fxs-ports"> <extension name="outbound"> <condition field="destination_number" expression="^(.*)$"> <action application="set" data="toll_allow=local,domestic,international"/> <action application="transfer" data="$1 XML default"/> </condition> </extension> </context> </include> Then in your openzap.conf.xml change the context for the analog span(s) with the FXS ports: <param name="context" value="default"/> Restart FS after making these changes and then give it a shot. You should see the call from the analog phone going into context "fxs-ports" and then get transferred over to the default context where it will act like your SIP phones because we manually set the ${toll_allow} chan var. -MC Unfortunately that did not work. The "default_gateway" variable used by this line: Dialplan: OpenZAP/1:1/17705550068 Action bridge(sofia/gateway/${default_gateway}/17705550068) ended up looking like: EXECUTE OpenZAP/1:1/17705550068 bridge(sofia/gateway//17705550068) whereas a successful dialout looks like: EXECUTE sofia/internal/1002@192.168.2.51 bridge(sofia/gateway/gw4.telasip.com/17705550068) Somehow the information in the directory/default/default.xml file never got included and I'm not sure how to fix it. Thanks for any guidance. Jim.
