We have 4 Telular mobile phone gateways hooked up to an Asterisk box, and we need the Asterisk box to balance the load across the 4 lines. Currently, Asterisk uses the first line, and subsequent lines when the first is busy.
This means that our first line is in use almost 100%, and the last line is never used.
Has anyone done anything similar to this before? We have looked at using mysql and getting asterisk to query mysql to choose which line to use, but this seems overly complex.
Does Asterisk have a built in function to do this simply and easily?
When you do dial (ZAP/g1/number) you can do instead:
# g: select the lowest-numbered non-busy Zap channel (aka. ascending sequential hunt group).
# G: select the highest-numbered non-busy Zap channel (aka. descending sequential hunt group).
# r: use a round-robin search, starting at the next highest channel than last time (aka. ascending rotary hunt group).
# R: use a round-robin search, starting at the next lowest channel than last time (aka. descending rotary hunt group).
