<font size="3"><font face="Times New Roman">Okay, here is the
background. I have a PRI with 15 active channels on it. I originally
setup all of them in group=1 and all outgoing and incoming calls used
this group. The phone number that I have associated with these
channels ends with 750 and that is how I direct the calls. i.e. In my
extensions.conf I have:<br>
<br>
exten => 750,1,Dial(SIP/120,20)<br>
<br>
All this works fine. Now I have the need to separate out three of the
channels (13-15). I am using the associated phone number ending in
767 for this purpose. I have currently changed the zapata.conf to
look like this:<br>
<br>
signalling=pri_cpe<br>
switchtype=national<br>
echocancel=yes<br>
echocancelwhenbridged=yes<br>
echotraining=yes<br>
callerid=asreceived<br>
group=1<br>
context=default<br>
channel=>1-12<br>
group=2<br>
context=fax<br>
channel=>13-15<br>
<br>
To my understanding this is supposed to separate channels 1-12 into
group 1 and channels 13-15 into group 2. If that is true, that's fine,
but it doesn't help me with my current issue. This is what I would
like... When a call comes into the phone number ending in 750 it uses
up the 12 channels in the first group, and when a call comes into the
phone number ending in 767 it uses the 3 channels in group 2 AND USES
NO MORE CHANNELS, only those three. The reason for all of this is that
I have faxing through asterisk working and want those last three
channels used for faxing but I do not want the fax lines eating up all
my channels and leaving none for voice calls. Please help. Thanks.<br>
