Hello, Has anyone been able to deploy multiple Asterisks using a backend Registrar/Proxy/Redirect servers ? What I am trying to achieve here is: a. Multiple Asterisks servers using an external Registrar using a single database. b. And also for these multiple Asterisks to use an external Proxy/Redirect server for call forwarding LCR etc (in order to avoid another call setup). Or perhaps it might be simpler to hack the LCR module to initiate a lookup on the external Registrar's database ?

Well, the number of users doesn't say much about how many simultaneous phone calls you're going to process. That's the important factor here. As you see from other replies, one asterisk box will never be able to handle the amount of calls, even though it could handle 5.000 registrations. You need to find a way to scale, and different people have different opinions about it. I focus on the SIP protocol and scale by using a SIP proxy in front of Asterisk. Other people focus more on Asterisk itself and build scalability with database clusters and Asterisk's own protocol called Dundi. There are many ways and much advice to be found if you search the web and the mailing lists. Before you go any further, find out some important facts - How many simultaneous calls? At which hours? - Any need for monitoring, conferencing or other CPU-intensive voice applications? - Do you need NAT support for the devices? - Will every user only have one phone or multiple phones? There are plenty of people on the list who work as consultants with this kind of setup, and as Alastair said, looking at it from an service provider background this is a fairly small platform. Currently, I'm involved in a project that starts with 50.000 users. This means that you won't explore uncharted waters, the solutions for your problem exists out there and has been in use for a long time.
