setting up vitelity

[Joelio]

Hi, im a total noob, so sorry if this is basic.

I have been following the setup instructions here:
http://nerdvittles.com/index.php?p=201

I have chosen vitelity, have an account, used their wizard, which suggested I add the following:

Please add the following configuration to your /etc/asterisk/sip.conf

Add the following at the bottom of your sip.conf

[vitel-inbound]
type=friend
host=inbound6.vitelity.net
context=inbound
username=myusername
secret=mypassword
allow=all
insecure=very

[vitel-outbound]
type=friend
host=outbound1.vitelity.net
context=outbound
username=myusername
fromuser=myusername
trustrpid=yes
sendrpid=yes
secret=mypassword
allow=all

Please add the following configuration to your /etc/asterisk/extensions.conf

Add the following to the bottom of your extensions.conf

[outbound]
exten => _1NXXNXXXXXX,1,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN}@vitel-outbound)
exten => _011.,1,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN}@vitel-outbound)

; e911 must be enabled. see DIDs > NPANXXNXXX > Action > e911
exten => _911,1,Dial(SIP/911@vitel-outbound)

[inbound]

Im only interested in doing outbound dialing, no inbound.

But now when I look in freepbx console I don't see any of these new options, I applied the config changes which said it reloaded the config files and have restarted asterisk.

Maybe im looking in the wrong spot, but im to the point where it says:
Click on the Trunk Sequence pull-down and choose your providers in the order you’d like them to be used for outbound calls.

and I only see the Zap/g0 there no vitelity-outbound

thanks
Joel

Don't edit those files directly

What you need to do is set two trunks in FreePBX. A vitel-inbound and a vitel-outbound trunk.

Also, if you had to edit a .conf file only edit sip_custom.conf or extensions_custom.conf. The other files will get written over when you reload FreePBX.

Go to the Vitelity support page and follow the instructions for setting up Trixbox. They worked like a charm for me. You'll need to setup both an in bound truck and a out bound trunk.
