I’m trying to get the call per trunk limit to function correctly. In the maximum channels field I put in one, and as indicated in the tooltip, put the custom context in the context field of the inbound calls tab.
Outbound calls get limited, but not inbound calls. I wonder it it may be because I’m registered as a type peer and ther is not other info in the Incoming Tab for the trunk!

Dicko: I know about the pop-up, and I’ve been doing it, as mentioned in my original comment. it’s just that despite putting in the “auto generated context” as described in the pop-up/ tooltip calls aren’t limited. I was thinking either I’m doing this wrong (but it seems fairly straight forward), or there’s something wrong with FPBX.
Igaetz: If indeed the inbound calls are counted but not answered then maybe the field should be called something other than Maxuimum Channels. It kind of makes one think that this is the MAXIMUM Channels that will be used. It does the job fine for Outbound Only.
