Using templates

Use templates by entering the template name (without spaces!) immediately after the section title. The contents of the template are interpreted first, then the other lines in the section. Sections can inherit multiple templates, e.g.:

[201](my-phones,sales)   ; inherits "my-phones" and "sales"
username=201
secret=1111

Parameters in the template may be overwritten with parameters in the section, if necessary.

Example

[stations](!)               ; Template "stations"
type=friend
qualify=yes
dtmfmode=rfc2833
disallow=all
allow=alaw

[snom](!,stations)          ; Template "snom", inherits "stations"
dtmfmode=inband

[linksys](!,stations)       ; Template "linksys", inherits "stations"
qualify=no

[snom1](snom)               ; Station "snom1", inherits "snom"
username=101
secret=123

[snom2](snom)               ; Station "snom2", inherits "snom"
username=102
secret=123

[linksys1](linksys)         ; Station "linksys1", inherits "linksys"
username=103
secret=123
