Asterisk cmd StripMSD

Note: This command is completely obsolete and has been removed

Synopsis

Strip leading digits

Description

StripMSD(count)

Strips the leading ‘count’ digits from the channel’s associated extension. For example, the number 5551212 when stripped with a count of 3 would be changed to 1212.

Deprecated: This command is considered obsolete since the introduction of variable substitution. Use ${EXTEN:1} instead of StripMSD(1).

Return codes

This app always returns 0, and the PBX will continue processing at the next priority for the new extension.

Example

So, for example, if priority 3 of 5551212 is StripMSD 3, the next step executed will be priority 4 of 1212. If you switch into an extension which has no first step, the PBX will treat it as though the user dialed an invalid extension.
