If you are still using the XML configuration, in the virtualhosts.xml you
should be able to add the binding in the queue section ... like this:

                <queue>
                    <name>queue1</name>
                    <queue1>
                        <exchange>exchange1</exchange>
                        <routingKey>rtgkey.#</routingKey>
                        <durable>true</durable>
                    </queue1>
                </queue>
