Hi Kare, The limitation comes from the number of ports. This is because each user gets assigned to a port. The way to overcome the limitation is indeed to use more IP addresses (physical or virtual). In this case, you must run one SIPp instance per IP address and use the -i <ip_addr> command line option thereby assigning one of the IP addresses to each SIPp instance. This then needs to be combined with the -id <instance_id> option.
Note that this is all automatically generated for you if you use the ims_bench configuration script and specify a list of test systems corresponding to the list of IP addresses you allocate. Hope this helps. -David -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: mercredi 20 février 2008 14:41 To: [email protected] Subject: [Sipp-users] IMS Bench SIPp - Max users/ports problem Hi, I ran some tests with the IMS Bench SIPp. Everything went fine until suddenly my test ended because the user pool got empty. I figured out that the default user base of 24 000 users just isn't enough to exhaust my SUT, so I made a new user base consisting of 100 000 provisioned users. Now I can't even register my Test System. SIPp gives this error: UDP port over 52000 !, errno = 98 (Address already in use). I've set the limits.conf file according to the installation instructions... I also tried to add some virtual IP addresses (if that is the solution to my problem), but I could get them working with the benchmark. How do I tell the Test Systems or the Manager to use these multiple addresses? (SIPp didn't seem to recognize the -user_ip option at all and the -ip_field option didn't work for me either). I would really appreciate if someone could help me. Thanks for advance! - Kare ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
