A DAHDI device (e.g. a PCI card) is represented within the DAHDI drivers
as a 'DAHDI device'. Normally (with auto_assign_spans=1 in the module
dahdi, which is the default), when a device is discovered and loaded,
it regiters with the DAHDI core and its spans automatically become
it registers with the DAHDI core and its spans automatically become
available. However if you have more than one device, you may be
interested to set explicit spans and channels numbers for them. To use
manual span assigment, set 'auto_assign_spans' to 0 . e.g. in a file

As you can see, the order of span numbers or local span number is
insignificant. However the order of channel numbers must be the same as

spans with the DAHDI core using 'dahdi_register()'.
