Then virtual would be the way to go...I'm no expert, so you'd have to do some research on how many virtual interfaces you could use reliably.

But some of the other suggestions I've seen might be a better option?  Separate contexts for each entity, etc.

You might be able to use virtual NICs to eliminate the problem with "non-standard" ports for a company's SIP phones.  Or real NICs using a couple of multi-homed cards.

I haven't tried it, though.

Has anyone ever tried to run multiple instances of Asterisk on a single system, running each with a different username, and each in a separate base directory? Something like /home/pbx/business-1, home/pbx/business-2 etc?

Did it work? I assume for every service that Asterisk runs, on each instance, you'd have to use a different port numbers, which may get confusing. Each businesses phones would have to be configred with different SIP ports then too.

What about processes? I notice that Asterisk runs about 26 processes (or are they threads?) for a single instance.
