Hello, I've seen various suggestions thrown around for hardware when people ask, but can we all agree on some basic hardware recommendations for a few basic setups(and post them on a website) to make it easier for new people to avoid some of the hardware/software pitfalls when they are setting up their first systems.
Something like this: (THIS IS JUST A PROPOSED LAYOUT SO PLEASE BE GENTLE) for a single corporate office T1 system with 40 employees: P4 2.0GHz, 1GB RAM, 80GB IDE mirror RAID with promise card Digium T1 card sound card XXXX (someone please suggest a good universal sound card that works well with Linux and Asterisk) Redhat 9.0 with all development packages selected mpg123 compiled from source asterisk build 42 x cisco 7960 (or grandstream 102) phones running G711u codec 2 x cisco ATA 188 (or grandstream HT) adapters for analog phones and faxes I'd be happy to post the suggested configs on my website or maybe one of the dozen other people that host Asterisk info sites could post them there. I think we should have these setups listed: - home user with 1-2 telco lines and 2-5 phones - small office with 4-8 telco lines and 8-16 phones - small office with a fractional E1/T1 and 12-24 phones - medium office with full E1/T1 and 24-48 phones - medium office with 2-4 E1/T1s and 48-100 phones - large office with 4-16 E1/T1s and 100-500 phones - multi-location corporate offices with 16-64 E1/T1s distributed and 500-2500 phones - ACD heavy office suggestions - IVR or Conference heavy suggestions Thanks, MATT--- _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
