 +:: A "Classical Extension" is a PTSN phone number. In order to reach PTSN, you need a Trunk. That's why the sentence says "An extension on a Trunk is a Classical Extension". This differs from a SIP extension which does not need a trunk. Technically you could setup PBXes with several SIP extensions, no trunks, and just call from 1 extension to the other.

What about reveiving sip calls? IE, use gizmo or fwd and call [email protected] or [email protected]? Can that be set up?

Sorry, but can't you write comprehensibly for not informatics how could be enum check (trunk?) done? And most of all why it is not automatic?
