Re: [Asterisk-Users] multi tenant with queues

2005-11-18 Thread Lenz


You could use a prefix-based agent numbering scheme, like Agent/XXYYY  
where XX is your customer code and YYY their own agent number. When  
showing activity to a customer, you strip the XX part or you may leave it  
alone, as it makes no big confusion to the client.

Yours,

is to create a pool of available agent numbers, and the web gui for the

that a
tenant won't get to pick the exact numbers they want, but that doesn't

like too much of a compromise for a multi tenant system.

Anyone have any better ideas?

Thanks!!  That looks like a better solution all the way around.

[Asterisk-Users] multi tenant with queues

2005-11-17 Thread snacktime
I'd like some feedback on my solution so far for using queues in a
multi tenant configuration.  For most of the configuration files
I've been able to use a naming scheme for the context names, which
works nicely for making multi tenant fairly transparent.  However
that won't work for everything and queues is one of them.

In queues.conf the naming scheme will work for defining a queue. 
It won't work for the agents though as they all have to have unique
names.  My thought is to create a pool of available agent numbers,
and the web gui for the tenants will let the tenant pick the agent
numbers they want to assign out of the pool.  As numbers are used
they are taken out of the pool, and as they become available they go
back into the pool.  The  downside to this is that a tenant
won't get to pick the exact numbers they want, but that doesn't seem
like too much of a compromise for a multi tenant system.
