[asterisk-users] Dial out through multiple Zap groups

[C F]

This should do what you want:

You can call it like this:
exten => 12125551212,1,Macro(dialoutbound,${EXTEN},8005551212,3-Zap/G1/-Zap/G2/-Sip/Nufone/)

The above using the macro below will try zap/g1 first if it's in use
or otherwise unavailable, ti will go to zap/g2 and then sip/nufone.

[macro-dialoutbound]
;arg1 number to dial
;arg2 callerid
;arg3 device in form of: devicecount-device/resourc-device/resource as
many as matching devicecount
;when busy it will play busy
;when channelunavail, it will play congestion


exten => s,1,Noop()
exten => s,2,Noop()
exten => s,3,Noop()
exten => s,4,GotoIf($[${LEN(${CALLERID(num)})} > 7]?100);if we got cid
longer than 7 then it's an outside number so we leave it
exten => s,5,Set(CALLERID(num)=${ARG2})
exten => s,6,Goto(10)

exten => s,10,Noop()
exten => s,11,Noop(Weare starting to cut)
exten => s,12,Set(DCNT=${CUT(ARG3,,1)})
exten => s,13,Set(CNT=2)
exten => s,14,Goto(50);thats where we assign the DVC var

exten => s,50,Noop(We start assigning devices)
exten => s,51,Noop()
exten => s,52,Set(TCNT=$[${CNT} - 2])
exten => s,53,GotoIf($[${TCNT} = ${DCNT}]?800);congestion
exten => s,54,Set(DVC=${CUT(ARG3,-,${CNT})})
exten => s,55,Set(TCNT=${CNT})
exten => s,56,Set(CNT=$[${TCNT} + 1]);here we increment it
exten => s,57,Goto(callme,1)

exten => s,100,Noop(not setting CID, since we got one)
exten => s,101,Noop()
exten => s,102,Goto(10)

exten => s,800,Noop()
exten => s,801,Congestion()
exten => s,802,Hangup()

exten => callme,1,Noop()
exten => callme,2,Dial(${DVC}${ARG1},,Ww)
exten => callme,3,Goto(${DIALSTATUS},1)
exten => callme,103,Goto(3)

exten => CHANUNAVAIL,1,Noop()
exten => CHANUNAVAIL,2,Noop()
exten => CHANUNAVAIL,3,Goto(s,50)

exten => CONGESTION,1,Goto(CHANUNAVAIL,1)

exten => NOANSWER,1,Goto(s,800)

exten => BUSY,1,Noop()
exten => BUSY,2,Noop()
exten => BUSY,3,Playtones(busy)
exten => BUSY,4,Busy()

Hope this helps.
