[asterisk-users] Priority based softhangup

[Danny Nicholas]

Simple code 
In PERL - 
-- agi header stuff --
My ($pri, $callno) = @ARGV;
-- read database to get priority of lowest active call, return $lowpri,
$lowid --
if ($pri > $lowpri) {
   print STDOUT "exec softhangup $lowid\n";
   -- AMI dial $callno --
   }
Else {
   Print STDOUT "exec BACKGROUND congested message\n";
   }

You can find real examples on voip-info.org.
