[asterisk-users] Tips for installing and configuring Digum cards

[Eric Wieling]

Once an option is set in the chan_dahdi.conf file it applies to every channel => line listed after the setting, until the option is changed.  This is all you really know.

   If you come across it, please let me know because other than getting a hint somewhere after 2 hours of googling, I would not have known.

>>And aren't the characteristics 'cumulative' ?


   Can't tell you.  You seem to hint that they are cumulative, although as far I tested, they weren't.  



characteristic-a = foo
characteristic-b = bar
channel = 1

characteristic-b = bar
channel = 2 


channel 1 has foo and bar.  Channel 2 has bar only. ...(?)

In any case, my approach was not to take any chances and make sure all characteristics I use are cleared of any previous values in each channel declaration

	Wouldn't it be more accurate to say you specify the characteristics and 
	then specify the channels the characteristics apply to?
	
	And aren't the characteristics 'cumulative' such that
	
	characteristic-a = foo
	characteristic-b = bar
	channel = 1
	
	characteristic-b = baz
	channel = 2
	
	results in channel 1 having foo and bar while channel 2 has foo and baz?
