even a VOIP trunk is an extension, but who say this is internal or external, the configuration who decide that,

Exactly. The VoIP Trunk is a SIP extension like any other. An external user can call you outside of that trunk via anonymous SIP to SIP calling too. This is basically what you are enabling for someone in doing this. Just setting it up so that they don't have to set it up themselves.

That's actually not trunk a SIP trunk and extension aren't the same.

the fact that a webphone is an outside line is its ability to accept multiple calls in one time not like internal extension one person can call in one time

Actually that's not a limitation of the internal extensions either. Each extension is itself a trunk with unlimited call handling capabilities. Just no one enables that, normally.

A Trunk is the Circuit, an extension is not.

In Asterisk, the VoIP trunks are configured in the extensions list. Asterisk sure calls them extensions. And technically they are no different than any other extension, other than normally they originate from the inside out.

Depends on how you have set up the webphone. What web phone will you be using? I suspect that the web phone documentation will tell you what to do.

FreePBX has no limitations. It will treat it however you want.

but how??, this is the problem, i think it is difficult and require a solid CLI asterisk background

That could be. FreePBX might not expose that functionality.

And you'll need to expose your PBX to the internet to make this work.

Yes, for sure.

I don't see a web phone available there. Can you use their web phone product without their PBX?

not necessarily, a port forward will do the job without exposing you PBX with a public ip

That's probably the problem the OP is running into. Can't seem to make it work directly - which it's probably not meant to.

as far as i'm concerned you cannot,
but really it a very very good feature that allows you to increase your incoming phone calls and bring new costumers

Still exposed, but not fully. Better than nothing.

It's a great feature. But it is separate from the PBX code. You just have to go find a web phone that you like and use that. No reason to have it connected with the PBX itself.
