TRY THIS CLI log with name of Outbound Route

[Rrrr]

Someone who can tip me on how to display the selected Outbound Route name in the CLI log?

I would like to add the proper script to macro-dialout-trunk-predial-hook as I sometimes have a hard time figuring out which outbound route was chosen (yes, too many options...).

Very Nice. Thank You.

I would like to see it in the CDR report. I wish we could have a little more control over displayed fields in that report. I don't really care about the "SYSTEM" field and would like to see this in its place. Or it could go in the Userfield column.

Yes.

tm1000 I will issue a pull request on github for this if you think it is something that would benefit other users.

You wont conflict with that name. Many variables are set on the fly during a call so it's hard to get a full list of them. You can always do a gotoif but thats a waste of time, just use what you are using below. Less dialplan.

So for users that need more than just a log entry, how about setting a new channel variable such as ${OUTBOUND_ROUTE_NAME} which can be used (with manual coding) to populate the CDR or whatever the user wants. How does one make sure the variable name doesn't conflict with any existing ones?

*edit, currently testing this line:

$ext->add($context, $exten, '', new ext_setvar('__OUTBOUND_ROUTE_NAME',$route['name']));

which gives this in the log:
