Hi Jason
Thanks for your response,  I setup the configuration with 2 proxies based on the example of the freeswitch wiki.

I looked at freeswitch.log and found the following line.

Dialplan: sofia/internal/1000@74.207.249.79 Action set(effective_caller_id_number=12223334444)

If this makes sense to someone ,could you please gently guide me in the right direction.

Thanks
Paul

Hello All
I am trying to configure freeswitch so that it sends outgoing calls to the PSTN through voicepulse
My configuration is as follows.
I created a file $PREFIX/conf/sip_profiles/external/voicepulse.xml

<include>
<!-- West Coast gateways -->
  <gateway name="voicepulse">
    <param name="username" value="my-user"/>
    <param name="realm" value="sjc-primary.voicepulse.com"/>
    <param name="password" value="my-password"/>
    <param name="proxy" value="sjc-primary.voicepulse.com"/>
    <param name="expire-seconds" value="600"/>
    <param name="register" value="true"/>
  </gateway>
  <gateway name="voicepulse-backup">
    <param name="username" value="my-user"/>
    <param name="realm" value="sjc-backup.voicepulse.com"/>
    <param name="password" value="my-password"/>
    <param name="extension" value="1000"/>
    <param name="proxy" value="sjc-backup.voicepulse.com"/>
    <param name="expire-seconds" value="600"/>
    <param name="register" value="true"/>
  </gateway>
</include>

I also have a dial plan defined as follows

<extension name="Long Distance - voicepulse">
    <condition field="destination_number" expression="^(\d{10})$">
      <action application="set" data="effective_caller_id_number=12223334444"/>
      <!-- If your provider does not provide ringback (180 or 183) you may simulate
        ringback by uncommenting the following line. -->
      <!-- action application="ringback" /-->
      <action application="bridge" data="sofia/gateway/voicepulse/$1"/>
     </condition>
   </extension>


When I dial an external number using extension 1000 I get the following message on the CLI

I am really new to VOIP and having a hard time with this. I am really not sure how to proceed. Any help would be really appreciated.

Thanks
