Hi Milind.

Take this entry from extension.conf from one of the Asterisk configurations I maintain using babytel as a VoIP provider:

exten => _NXXXXXX,1,Set(CALLERID(name)=HRSG 6131234567)
exten => _NXXXXXX,2,Set(CALLERID(number)=6131234567)
exten => _NXXXXXX,3,Dial(SIP/613${EXTEN}@sip.babytel.ca,300,r)

This example handles 7 digit dialing, prefixing the outgoing call on ,3 with 613.

You’ll need to have an entry in “sip.conf” to handle the registration and configuration of the provider. In this case it’s like

[general]
register => 16131234567:secret:16131234567@sip.babytel.ca:5065/0

and

[sip.babytel.ca]
context=mycontext
type=peer
disallow=all
allow=g729
allow=gsm
allow=ulaw
secret=secret
username=16131234567
host=sip.babytel.ca
port=5065
fromuser=16131234567
fromdomain=sip.babytel.ca
insecure=very
nat=no
canreinvite=no

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the information. I can now make calls between my computers. But how do I make outgoing calls using VoIP provider.
