asterisk users - Jun 2005 - how to limit simultaneous calls

Hi,

There is one asterisk server, and there are several locations. On each 
location there are 100 (SIP) extensions. The idea is to set up a limit 
of 10 concurrent calls for each location (because of bandwidth issues on 
each location). How can I do that?

Thanks!

Check out setgroup. See if that will accomplish what you are after.

I am curious to what your loading was/is with 100 extensions.  How many 
concurrent calls should be planned - in an extensions to line ratio?  I 
had heard that 10 to 1 was a pretty good metric.  Thoughts?
