[asterisk-users] Best way to limit outgoing calls per trunk

[bruce bruce]

Thanks for the input.

Is there no Asterisk command in dialplan to return true or false or number
of channels per trunk rather than going to bash script?

And if I do the bash script how can I use "sed" and "awk" to search for the
right words to see if trunk is in use or not.

A bit detail would be really helpful.

Thanks,
Bruce
