Strongly suggest to consider a Freeswitch/OpenSER implementation instead.
Regarding purpose built and supported software.sometimes throwning
billions of CMM software development to a product does not guarantee a good
product... look at Micro$oft Vista.

Hello,

commercial solutions but now there is a window openning for open source

Thanks to everyone who replies so far!
We have Nortel PBX'es with a support contract from one of the local VARs
(Nortel does not give direct support here). In the last two weeks we had one
of our exchanges down for three half days; one was after a failure, and the
other two were when the

Due diligence is required on anything 10,000 people are going to be
pounding on. Undersizing is common,
I think due diligence is THE key with any open source solution,
including asterisk. I'll admit that I pretty badly screwed up one
asterisk installation because I didn't adequately prepare it

Potentially, no. But if you intend to provide subscriber/PBX features,
it is needed as a UA feature box(s).
And FreeSWITCH can't handle that?
Freeswitch can provide many PBX features with additional modules, but
asterisk can provide more, and its implementations

I know that in the past there have been people on this list who have

are still around to comment.

I've looked at doing various things to chan_sip to improve signaling
performance (hash tables for call lookups, etc.) I gave up when I
realized that the overhead of handling the RTP was so far above the
overhead of processing SIP signaling that it didn't really matter
much. The only reason
