You'll want to learn all about Channels and groups. You can try here:
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Channels+and+Groups.
I've assumed that you have 4 FXO modules (to support 4 external phone lines)
and 4 FXS modules (to support 4 local extensions).
Essentially you'll need to define "group"s in your ZAPATA.CONF
file. I've
provided an example below (it also includes call groups and pick up groups -
I've set it so that any group can pick up a call ringing for someone else)
You'll also need contexts in EXTENSIONS.CONF to control how your users
dial. The entries in ZAPATA.CONF for the (FXS) extensions will invoke the
appropriate context in EXTENSIONS.CONF so that the appropriate trunks are
used. Check out the "Dialling a Group" section of
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/index.php?page=Asterisk+Zap+channels for
information on the various ways you can have Asterisk select a trunk from a
group. I've used r below - a round-robin search, starting at the next
highest channel than last time (aka. ascending rotary hunt group).
Yours,
Hugh
