Creating IAX extensions


In this recipe, we will show the process for creating an IAX extension. This protocol was created using IP-PBX Asterisk.

How to do it…

To create an IAX2 extension, select Generic IAX2 Device in the Adding Extension link, filling in the fields with the following information, shown as follows:

  • User Extension: 7004

  • Display Name: IAX2 Extension 7004

  • Call Waiting: Enable

  • Secret: 1234abcd

The following screenshot shows this process:

Click on the Submit button and then on the Apply Configuration Changes Here link that appears on top of the page, which will finish creating this extension.

Tip

For this recipe, we have used the most simple and common parameters to create this type of extension. After creating an extension, a link with its name will be created at the right side of the screen. If we click on any of these extensions' links, we will notice that there are more options. We highly recommend reviewing FreePBX and Asterisk's online documentation.
