This would limit the amount of calls the SIP account can place to 10. Another thing you can is have a macro compare the CID of the phone to where the call is going to. If they are the same dump the call and maybe have an agi that emails the sysadmin and or user of the issue. _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
