[Asterisk-Users] Detecting channel status

[Ron Gage]

Another suggestion - perhaps there would be a way to detect the status
of the PRI itself, perhaps monitoring and/or returning the performance
registers on the PRI interface.

Rationale:  if the PRI is seeing lots of errors (or an LOS), then we
could fail-over to a physical line (FXO) or another PRI.

Just an idea...
