This option is available starting from MOR 10
What is External DID?
!!WARNING - Deep Asterisk knowledge is a must before proceeding!!
External DID function allows you to implement different PBX (or other Asterisk related functions) into MOR.
When you assign some DID number pbxfunction External DID your call is forwarded to an extension file
in Asterisk called:
/etc/asterisk/extensions_mor_external_did.conf
Prior to making configurations in that file, please keep in mind, that:
When call comes to DID, for example DID number 123456 it will be forwarded to the dial plan in that file with extension:
exten => 1234567890,1,...
DID number and PBX function Extension CANNOT be the same. So if your DID is 1234567890, your PBX function extension
cannot be 1234567890, it can be any other number, like *235485.
In this file you can basically configure any function that Asterisk supports to handle your call, like:
