Extension - The numbered extension, e.g. 6000, assigned to the
defined user. The extension must be a number within the range speci-
fied in Extension Preferences on the Options page.
Name - The first and last name of the individual assigned to this
extension. The name can also be that of a department, such as Sales or
Support, for example. This is important because the Dial By Name
Directory function of Asterisk uses this information to route calls.
