Asterisk “s” extension

The “s” extension is used when there is no known called number in the context used.

The “s” extension is used when starting a call. It is also used when defining a macro.

Incoming calls are always placed in a context in the dialplan, either one you specify in the channel configuration file, or the default context. If no other match exist for the call within the context, the s extension is activated.
