redirecting outgoing call to specifc voice-port on CME 4.1

[tmowinski]

Hello

Is it possible to force outgoing calls to use specific voice-port ?

For example: I have two pools: 1.. and

2.. and 3 voice-ports 0/0/0, 0/0/1 and 0/1/0.

A would like pool 1.. to use always first free voise-port (it is default) but pool 2.. first try to use voice-port 0/1/0 and then if it will be busy use remaining voice-ports.

thanks in advance

This can be done with trunk command and trunk groups. It's a bit complicated, so bear with me:

voice-port 0/0/0

trunk-group first

voice-port 0/0/1

trunk-group first

voice-port 0/1/0

trunk-group second

dial-peer voice 10 pots

desc this for use by pool 1

destination-pattern 9...T

trunkgroup first 1

trunkgroup second 3

dial-peer voice 80 pots

desc this for use by pool 2

destination-pattern 89...T

trunkgroup second 1

trunkgroup first 3

ephone-dn-template 1

trunk 8

ephone-dn xx dual-line

! this is a pool2 ephone for external calls

ephone-dn-template 1

Note now, the trunk command always prepend the digit 8 so that DP 80 is selected. But since the digits 8 is prepended for internal calls too, either you configure a trasnaltion profile to remove it, or configure an additional ephone-dn to make external calls, and place that on a separate button form dns in pool 2.

Hope this helps, please rate post if it does!
