Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk is not designed for University with largeuser base?
Hello, After a long time we had a meeting with our university's management and got a green light to have a proof of concept with open source telephony. Now I have to select the right software to experiment with... Up to now I thought of going with OpenSER for the masses and Asterisk for voicemail and other media related things. However, from reading around it seems like FreeSwitch can give me the benefits of both packages. Anyone has an experience with it?

This isn't really the right mailing list for that question. The answer, though, is, as always: it depends.

About the database polling - i think for such a installation you could create something like a database to config files script - so not to use realtime. This should solve this problem. No need for that. There's rtcachefriends setting in sip.conf, and if you have to update user credentials from some interface, just issue sip prune realtime peer xxx trough manager. Also, in Asterisk 1.6 res_mysql driver can take advantage of MySQL master/slave setups, so You can distribute Your database load to separate read/write hosts.

Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk is not designed for University with largeuser base?
Hi, i do have a request for an installation with about 1800 sip extensions - as addon to a exisiting system - connected to it using qsig. The requirement here is also that the system should have SIP over TCP with TLS and SRTP (snom phones should get supported) I know there are patches out there to get this working - but have someone already used these patches with so large installations ? About the database polling - i think for such a installation you could create something like a database to config files script - so not to use realtime. This should solve this problem. What do you people think about using freeswitch to handle the sip extensions - do BLF/SLA/SRTP/SIP over TCP TLS - and use asterisk for interconnection to the other PBX - doing the rest. Have anyone here already tried freeswitch in such a combination ? regards, Wolfgang Am Donnerstag, den 19.03.2009, 08:08 +0200 schrieb Yehavi Bourvine: Hello, Sorry for the delay - was out of office.

Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk is not designed for University with largeuser base?
Very complex installation, so try to star with: 1) Compatibility of current phone platform + asterisk. For example, you can convert current extension as sip extension using fxs ports. This reduces your cost, you don't need buy 8.000 ip phones and install an new wired network. 2) Planning and do an asterisk cluster based building an locations. Group extensions by buildings/asterisk servers. 4) Planning and do asterisk network with and distributed dial plan and trunking 5) Try locate an asterisk specialists 6) believe in asterisk!
