a dialer rotary-group is used for those situations where you have multiple lines bundled into a single rotary group used for async dial-in or ISDN channel rotation.

kind of a huntGroup for async & isdn interfaces.

see the following link for more info:

so if it has say 16 lines on a PRI, does it try each one to see if its not in use ?

[gpulos]

no, you should not need a rotary-group for a single pri alone.

the channel selection of your pri(s) is usually defined by your pbx. it is usually top-down or bottom-up and it does work in a round-robin fasion. if a channel is busy that it attempts to use, it chooses the next available in line.

so would rotary group normally be used on a BRI interface ?
