I was hoping that rolling over to the next trunk would be simple, but it doesn't appear to be so, especially for a newbie. So I'm looking for a simple way where if I get a busy on the first outgoing trunk, I can do something to get connected to the next one. Perhaps something like the big boys do and dial 9 first? I'm guessing a custom dial plan might do that but I haven't figured out how to do it. I'm running asterisk@home version 2.8 sounds right. (maybe that's asterisk 2.8) Can someone shed some light on a work around until I can figure out rollovers? Thanks, Jim.
In Asterisk@Home, you setup rollovers in your Outbound Routes in FreePBX. Create the pattern you wish to match, and then select the first trunk you'd like that pattern to use by selecting it from the dropdown. Select the trunk you'd like to try second by selecting it in the second dropdown and clicking the Add button. Repeat for the third, fourth... nth trunk.

What kind of line is being used?
in zapata.conf:
group = 1
channel => 1,3,5,6
I create a zap group will all your lines and dial out using the zap
group ie...
Dial(Zap/g1/${EXTEN})
By using the group it dials on the first available line.
If you want a more complex setup I have that as well.
I have an agi script that looks at the number dialed and determins if it
is a local call if so, dial out the ZAP line, if all ZAP lines are busy
dial out an IAX provider, I all IAX lines are busy, then roll to my SIP
provider.
Took a bit to figure it all out and get working but it is very useful.
