| 00:05.14 | Bentley42 | For some kinds of connections — such incoming calls from an outside telephone line — the user has not dialed an extension. In that case, Asterisk behaves as if the user had dialed a special extension named "s" (for Start). Asterisk will look for an extension "number" s in the definition of the context for that channel for instructions about what it should do to handle the call. |
