asterisk users - Apr 2005 - Random outbound:

Can anyone suggest a way to randomly pick an outbound trunk so
that all trunks are used equally? I'm all about Equal Trunk Opportunity.
Seriously though, I've got 500 minutes per softphone account and I'd
like to
use an equal amount on each as to not see overages on any particular account
until all have been depleted. 

 

Thanks

Tim
