I know this is a frequent topic on the list. Sorry if this creates more bandwidth but I couldn't get my specific answer from neither the wiki nor searching the list.

I've read that a P4 3GHz+ should be sufficient to handle a 4 T1s on a single CPU machine. I am setting up a proof of concept machine but I was only able to get a P4 1.6GHz machine. If this machine is only going to be "forwarding" the calls to another, much more powerful, Asterisk machine which will handle more demanding call processing rules, scripts, Monitoring, etc, do you think this CPU will be able to handle the 4 T1s? Will it handle 3? 2? 1? Efficiently, of course.

The idea is to setup a basic VoIP gateway whose only intelligence will be to forward ALL incoming calls to another Asterisk box using IAX as well as placing outbound calls through the T1s from other Asterisk boxes communicating using IAX.

Comments?

Thanks,
Daniel
