My problem is how can I get the group number of current calling port dynamically in my dialplan.
For example if user call to the pri which is in port 1 then my dial statement is
exten => _X.,n,dial(DAHDI/g1/${NUMBER})
And for the call on second pri port 2
exten => _X.,n,dial(DAHDI/g2/${NUMBER})
g3,g4,g5 etc for other ports in order to set that particular DID
Currenty what I am doing when call comes I create a GROUP variable which stores the group by checking DID range
same => n,Set(__GROUP=${IF($[ ${EXTEN} >= ${DIDMINPORT1}]? ${IF($[ ${EXTEN} <= ${DIDMAXPORT1}]?g1:g1)} :g1)})
same => n,Set(__GROUP=${IF($[ ${EXTEN} >= ${DIDMINPORT2}]? ${IF($[ ${EXTEN} <= ${DIDMINPORT2}]?g2: ${GROUP} )} : ${GROUP} )})
and etc for other groups ,for dialling I do
exten => _X.,n,dial(DAHDI/${GROUP}/${NUMBER})
But I dont think its a good idea because I have 8 port so I have to write 8 lines to determine the group and dial by matching the DID.So is there any way to get group dynamically in my dialplan means if there any channel variable from which I can get the group of current incoming port call?
