Why take it over to another list? The point of this conversation is to prove that AstLinux can manage this config. However, in talking about the asterisk mailing list you've given me an idea. I should try regular Linux/Asterisk (rather than the uC special AstLinux build) on this hardware to see

Re: [Astlinux-users] 5501 Stress tests

2010-07-21 Thread Philip Prindeville
First, I'd take this conversation over to the asterisk mailing list. But what's strange is that most TDM chips include an HDLC framer (or even two), so the framing is done in hardware, and high CPU usage should not cause framing errors unless the card (or driver) has a serious design flaw. -P

If I limit the calls to 2 every 5s and no more than 8 calls I can exercise the card reliably. If I up that to 9 calls I start to get HDLC errors and if I do 10 calls the entire span takes a dump and restarts. The processor on the 5501 becomes too hot to touch at this point (I'm running with th

No idea. It's also not carried by Digium any more. They have the TE120P out now and even that's on an EOL notice. However, the card is still sold by many "dealers" for around $130. I found somebody whom had tested a 4801 running FreeBSD with a TE110P and Asterisk. He was only able to get 2 conc

Yup, it's not looking good at all. In the pure SIP domain I can route 50 calls concurrently (haven't tried any more than that) and it was solid for over 2 hours after which I stopped the test. In the T1 domain using a Digium TE110P I can't get any more than 10 calls from it. After that the T1

Looks like your PRI signalling isn't set up correctly. I'd doublecheck that b8zs is correct for ESF. In fact, I'm not even sure ESF is the appropriate setting for ISDN signalling. On 07/16/2010 04:44 AM, Mark Phillips wrote: > Well, it doesn't look good. > > My test rig is as follows > > P

It's looking better in the SIP world. I have the 5501 currently routing 50 calls at a rate of 5 calls a second. Just to make sure that there's no network losses etc I also have a softphone connected through the 5501 to the P4 so that I can hear the MOH. I guess technically that makes 51 calls.
