The way I manage this in Asterisk is every SIP UA has a unique login
but in different contexts. I suppose that if SER directs a call to
Asterisk to the specific SIP client, Asterisk will recognize it
belongs to a different context. The question is, I don't know if SER
knows about multiple contexts under the premise of the Asterisk world.
Also, I get the feeling you are pretty much telling me to stick to
Asterisk :) Is that so?
Thanks,

Hi
If you are already using multiple contexts within asterisk, then
your already half way there, the problem is if you stick in SER,
bcause then your phones are not registered in asterisk, hence all
fall into the same context in sip.conf, which means they all will
hit one context in extensions.conf, hence you should look into that.
I am not sure if you can do the 101/102 extension thing in
asterisk, since aliases will be bound to a contact, whereas in
asterisk the context is also part of the dialing plan.
DID can be done, as can forking and directing to voicemail on no
answer.

Hello,
I'm still trying to learn more about SER. I've been using Asterisk
to manage virtual PBX services for different companies by using
multiple contexts within Asterisk. However, since I only use
Asterisk with SIP UAs and to communicate with ITSPs, I don't have
the need to have all the fancy features Asterisk offers, plus I
have the additional advantage of having the built-in NAT support
in SER.
The question I have is if someone can point me to the right
place where I can see some sample configs that do more or less
the things I need or if someone would be willing to share some of
those configs on the list.
Basically, I need to have the ability to manage any number of
virtual PBX services where each virtual entity can manage their
own extension numbering, DIDs, outbound CLID. I would probably
just continue using Asterisk for voicemail services since I get
the feeling that SEMS is still "unstable" to go into production,
even for voicemail services only (unless told otherwise).
The idea is that even if two companies define two extensions 101
and two extensions 102, when each company calls ext 101 or 102
internally, the call will be maintained within that company and
would not cross over to the other company. Also, having features
like one main number (DID) that could ring in multiple
extensions simultaneously (forking) and if no one answers, leave
a message in the general mailbox, or that each extension could
have, additionally, a DID so that they can be reached directly
from the outside.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Waldo
