Hi

I'm using asterisk 1.8.


How are channel names constructed. I always thought they were


<technology>/<peer>-<hex counter>


but I've had a lot of instances where a channel name doesn't have the correct peer as part of it.


Is it unwise to use channel names to extract the peers involved in a call?

How a channel is named is a function of the channel technology. Which channel technology(ies) are you curious about?
