The starting configuration file is chan_dahdi.conf which may subsequently include a dahdi-channels.conf file. The thing to remember with chan_dahdi.conf is all options are cumulative. Channels are created using the cumulative configuration when the channel => 1-23 line is processed. Anything after that line will not affect channels 1-23 since they are already created. Depending on where in the configuration the snippet you posted is found will determine if it even has any effect.
