[asterisk-users] More than one route to a destination
Hi, I have a setup with 5 remote offices, each having a Asterisk PBX. I then have a central office, also with an Asterisk PBX. The remote offices have 2 links to the central office, a large link, and a smaller, but more reliable link. Unfortunately, using IAX is not an option for me. Can I use 2 SIP Trunks from each remote offices to the central site and permit 2 simultaneous calls across the SIP trunk that passes over the smaller line, and permit 10 simultaneous calls across the larger link? I also wish to have priorities, so that more important calls are sent over the smaller link (but more reliable) and the larger link used for less important calls. Can you do this priority based on the user ID of the caller? Another question: If a user with a SIP client starts off in remote office1, and then moves to remote office4, can then keep the same phone number? Kind Regards James

IMO you can do this (I have a 1.4 client with 3 SIP trunks). Call-limit (or whatever flavor of that is applicable to your version) will let you control the flow across the trunks. The priority dialing would most likely have to be accomplished via AGI dialing since you would have to know if (a) a line is open or (b) can I kill the receptionists call so the boss can use the line? As for the last question, that's just some dialplan manipulation. -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces at lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces at lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of James Courtier-Dutton Sent: Tuesday, November 15, 2011 9:12 AM To: asterisk-users at lists.digium.com Subject: [asterisk-users] More than one route to a destination Hi, I have a setup with 5 remote offices, each having a Asterisk PBX.

For any outbound call see who is the caller and if CALLERID(num) matches use desired link.

Once DUNDI is setup your users can move between offices and have just one extension.
