Route Calls Over SIP Trunk
Outbound rules dictate how Asterisk routes outgoing calls, i.e. via different SIP trunks or gateways, based on which user or group is calling, the dialed number, or the number length. You need to create at least one outbound rule to start calling with Asterisk.
1. Go to Outbound Rules, select Add, and enter a name for the new rule.
2. Specify any matching criteria to trigger this outbound rule in the Apply this rule to these calls section.
