Dialing from FOP2 Dial textbox?

This is a general question concerning dialing from the Dial textbox. I can dial extensions fine but if I attempt to dial a URI like <!-- e --><a href="mailto:2201@172.16.83.1">2201@172.16.83.1</a><!-- e -->, the Asterisk CLI> shows that the number is being dialed but doesn't recognize it as a URI. It appears that "2201@172.16.83.1" is being treated as an extension. I receive an error message that this number is not in service. Is this normal behavior? How would one dial a URI?

  • I guess I should of RTFM, here's how:
    Direct VOIP dial: You can type a sip address with this format: SIP/$(exten)@$(domain) and it will originate a direct sip call to that extension @ server.

    Realized after I posted that you would have to indicate the protocol. Can it do IAX2 also?
  • The dial box only accepts sip and skype. I think I will add iax2 in the next release...
