Count used lines with sip show inuse

Asterisk Asterisk SIP
1

Hi all.

I monitor how many channels are used with Zabbix.
I get the values from “sip show inuse”.

This is an example:

* Peer name               In use          Limit           
cisco2811                 7/2/0           100

Let’s imagine that the Voip provider allows 30 simultaneous calls (in any direction, does not matter).

So, how to count used lines? Summarize only the first value from x/y/z or both 1st and 2nd?

There’s no destinct information in asterisk CLI help. So, i summurize values from two columns. I found somewhere that the first column shows active calls and the second one - the calls which are being established right now, but not bridged yet. So, I think from the providers perspective this is an already used line.

well, here is a very nice example to understand my question:

voip ~ # asterisk -rx 'sip show inuse' && asterisk -rx 'core show channels'
* Peer name               In use          Limit           
bg-sbc                    10/0/0          100             
orange-media              0/0/0           100             
bg-trunk                  0/0/0           100             
MTS_cisco2811_varna       10/1/0          100             
acme                      0/0/0           100             
cisco                     0/0/0           100

22 active channels
11 active calls
268295 calls processed

So, the calls are going from one peer [MTS_cisco2811_varna] through Asterisk, to another one [bg-sbc ] and vice versa.

And we see -

bg-sbc                    10/0/0
MTS_cisco2811_varna       10/1/0

and:

22 active channels
11 active calls

so, if I’d like to monitor how many lines are used on some peer, I have to summarize x and y values from ‘x/y/z’ right?
