The hardware is generic and I don't see any reason FreeSWITCH/Asterisk/anything else couldn't achieve the same performance. Hence my question: "Have you even tried?" I would have liked the OP to post some benchmarking results to start the discussion, but it looks as though he just assumed that software couldn't possibly attain his required performance level. If that is true, then providing a rough idea of what level of performance software can attain *is* indeed helping the OP.
Based on Brooks' post, I think the physical and power footprint requirements as well as in-house supportability are paramount here.
There's no question that a few Freeswitch boxes can do this in software just fine, and I don't think that's under controversy. But I don't think it's what he wants.
Simon, I think you're under the impression that you're arguing with a traditional ILEC blockhead/troglodyte who doesn't understand FOSS. That's an understandable assumption given the amount of people on this list who seem to be constitutionally unable/who cholerically refuse to grasp that one doesn't need to spend $200,000 on a proprietary appliance to accomplish fairly trivial objectives, but in this case incorrect. It's just not what Brooks wants. :-)
