It will do this already, it's default behaviour on PRI lines.
If I disable the slots with modem packs in on my 6.0.0 test box, and
then dial in on analog, the call will be refused, because the Max
has no analog resources left to answer the call.
If I re-enable the slot, then it rings in and is answered by a modem.
The Max reads the call setup info on the D channel, sees "analog" and
says "No Thanks". It shoudn't need any fancy settings at your telco.
