Hi all.

 

In further pursuing a 'Production Rollout' ready implementation of sipXecs,
I had some final questions, mostly in regards to what can and cannot be
Virtualized. Currently it is looking like anything that actually handles
voice traffic (whether recorded messages or ongoing conversations) should
remain physical due to timing constraints, but other Roles can be
Virtualized. 

 

What I am loosely looking at then, in a server layout fashion, would be
something along the lines of:

 

SIPX1 - Physical Server (Internal network) - Management/Primary SIP Router

SIPX2 - Physical Server (Internal Network) - Redundant SIP Router

SBC1 - Virtual Server (DMZ) - Primary ITSP Gateway (SBC)

SBC2 - Virtual Server (DMZ) - Redundant ITSP Gateway (SBC)

SIPCN1 - Physical Server (Internal Network) - Conferencing

SIPWM1 - Physical Server (Internal Network) - Voicemail

SIPX3 - Virtual Server (Internal Network) - ACD/Instant Messaging

 

Physical and Virtual Servers would all be 64bit, running a minimum of 8GB of
RAM, the VM1 machine having extra storage space, and all with a good
processors (well above the recommended listed in Michael's book) and GB
Ethernet. Virtual Machines would have slightly less power, but the Roles are
slightly less power hungry anyway. In this instance, Remote Workers would be
connected via VPN to our internal network, so Remote Worker traffic would
act just like 'inside user' traffic.

 

Does the above seem like a plausible solution?

 

As a secondary necessity - in regards to load testing - what tools of those
available (like WinSIP) would any of you recommend?
