I cannot get call-limit to work with my external sip trunks.
I get ‘0’ returned always using 'sip show inuse’
It works fine with all my sip phones and SPA-3000.
i think i remember seeing something about this on the bugtracker (or at least other reports of this occurring) but it was with SIP trunks only - SIP peers work fine, obviously.
you might scan the bugtracker quick, see if you can find anything on the issue…if i come across anything myself, i’ll let you know.
Thanks wes for the reply.
I could not find any specific bugs related to trunks only. I will try to do some debugging to see what is happening.
I did read your contribution to the call-limit function with queues but it did not seem relevant to this problem.
I thought I had this working but it seems since I changed something now it doesnt. Maybe it was my imagination.
I like call-limit and with the SIPPEER function it allows you to provide great call control, especially for phones that assume you want call waiting like the SPA-941.
My only other option is to use the GROUP and GROUP COUNT functions but I would rather not.
PS can I use GROUP’s to limit incoming calls as well?
re: the group function - yes, i believe it works just like call-limit, but isn’t a global setting (ie, you can’t use group functions on queue calls, for instance, which is why call-limit works better for us).
if it wasn’t the bugtracker, it was either the users or dev mailing list - sorry i can’t be more specific, but i have a feeling as though i’ve seen something like this before…just can’t remember where.
