Hi. Can you give me some hints on how I can create a rotational board? I dont even know how to spell it in english. What I want is to have more than one line reserved, but with a single phone number, so that people can call to the same number and get a ringing signal if any of the lines is available, instead of having to dial 5 different numbers in order to get a free line. This is done since first phone lines were invented :) but I dont know how to setup this. I write this to this list because I want to use it with asterisk. If this is the wrong place, could you please at least give me some hints? As I said, I dont even know how to spell it in English. Thanks for your time, RODOLFO --- avast!

Like: exten => 1,1,Dial(Sip/1234&Sip/1111&Sip/4321) Regards, Marconi.
If you are talking about people calling in and never getting a busy signal on POTS lines the correct term would be line hunting. The lines would be put in a line hunt group, this is usually circular. If line 1 is busy and a person calls it then the call would roll over to line 2, if line 2 was busy it would rollover to line 3, etc. If you are talking about H.323 lines or VoIP lines, then this would be configured within *.

Thanks to you too... I need to configure this on POTS lines, so I suppose I will have to talk to my Telco. Thanks a million.

[Asterisk-Users] How can I make a rotative board?

Usually, this would be a divert-when-busy service, ie. if line 1 is busy, your telco will divert all incoming calls on line 1 to line 2, if line 2 is busy to line 3 etc etc. rgds benjk -- Sunrise Telephone Systems, 9F Shibuya Daikyo Bldg., 1-13-5 Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan.
