[asterisk-users] Call limits and VoIP providers

[Mike]

That sounds like the most practical solution....Except its not clear to me
when the number of "group unit" is actually decreased.  Does it work
automagically when the call is hung up, or is there a command to decrease
it?
 
The wiki page doesnt seem to mention it (
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+cmd+SetGroup ), its probably obvious
for most people but not to me.

I would use the Set(GROUP()=groupname) command followed by a GotoIf($[
${GROUP_COUNT() blah blah blah] statement that directs the caller to a
priority based on the number of channels in use.  Works very well...

this is from freepbx  though coceptually should hold true.. 

can you not come up with a custom dial route (ie dialing 9 or whatever)
and then limit the channels on that route to 4
then have that extension send a prefix (9) whener it's being used to
access that route?
