CDR/CAR pages, then Device Reports > Gateways > Utilization<br>
<br>
Then I select the gateways and select the time.<br>
<br>
I think there is a service parameter or gateway parameter that says whether you
have 23 or 24 channels per trunk. An error there could skew the reports
slightly I think.<br>
<br>
I think there is a max of 10 or so per report.<br>

usage on some of our PRIs (MGCP, both ccm-to-pstn and ccm-to-pbx). Is
there a way of using RTMT, CAR, or some other built-in (translation: free)
