[Freeswitch-users] Avoid Loops

[Stephen Wilde]

Thank you for your suggestion! Good idea! I was searching for more
complicated solutions but mod_limit is perfect!

You say to use rate limiting but why not simply limit the calls number
instead of rate?

For example a row in dialplan as:

<action application="limit" data="hash inbound ${destination_number} 1" />

can avoid loops?
