Re: [Asterisk-Users] Hardware Capacity/Configuration

If use Alaw or ulaw as codec, i think it's
enough.
But if you need to make transcoding to a hard codec like g729, g723,  you 
have to look other cpu.

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

I have most agents using Alaw and/or ulaw and a handful of agents using 
gsm.
