SAIL Defaults
SAIL Default Value Policy
The general rule SAIL/SARK follows is that the /var/lib/asterisk/agi-bin/sarkhpe will impose a default value if the variable is empty. The said binary is bundled into the sail rpm for SME and centOS installs and for others like ARM / Debian, it is provided as a separate RPM.
The units for the variables generally follow Digium API - blame them for any inconsistency.
The values can be set in the sqlite3 database - /opt/sark/db/sark.db - preferably only if it is not settable in the SAIL GUI.
SAIL Defaults
| Variable | Default Value | Units | sark.db table | GUI Settable | Available Since | Remarks |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| LOCALAREA | globals | No | v3.1.1-22, v4.0.0-41 | area code prefix to be prepended | ||
| LOCALDLEN | globals | No | v3.1.1-22, v4.0.0-41 | short dial length used to decide when to prepend LOCALAREA | ||
| IVRKEYWAIT | 6 | seconds | globals | No | v3.1.1-22, v4.0.0-41 | |
| IVRDIGITWAIT | 6000 | milliseconds | globals | No | v3.1.1-22, v4.0.0-41 |
Notes
- Further info on what the LOCALAREA and LOCALDLEN variables do: They are an aid to local short-dialling over a SIP trunk but, as yet, far from complete. All it does is prepend whatever is in LOCALAREA to the dialled number, but only if the dialled number is LOCALDLEN digits in length. In the UK, local subscriber numbers can be 5,6 or 7 digits in length. Area codes are 4 5 or 6 digits in length. It just means we can dial a short local number when dealing with a SIP trunk and SAIL will prepend the correct area code before it does the dial.
