Hi

How to restrict maximum simultaneous number of calls ( incoming and outgoing ) in Asterisk ? I am NOT refering to call-limit per user.

Thanks in advance.

Its set in the asterisk.conf

[options]
maxcalls=200

Thanks.

Would you know whether this limit can be set differently to a group of users ? I have 50 users belonging to group 1, 30 users belonging to group 2 and 20 users belonging to group 3. All these users are registered to the same Asterisk server.

I have to restrict group 1 to 10 simultaneous calls, group 2 to 5 simultaneos calls and group 3 to 3 simultaneos calls.
