Thanks for the suggestion at starting out with 4GB. I have added it to the parts list.
I think my primary concern is the processor. Is a dual-core Intel Atom 330 sufficent for an office of about 15 phones? Current system is using 4 POTS lines from telco in a rotary hunt group. The plan is to drop those onto a 4-port Audiocodes FXO gateway. They already have a firewall in place, should they migrate or add an ITSP. -----Original Message----- From: Tony Graziano [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, October 23, 2009 1:17 PM To: [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: Re: [sipx-users] Server Sizing Recommendation - Replacing Nortel Norstar 616 More ram is better. I'd start with 4gb due to the changing software architecture. I've never had the chance to install on ssd's. You might have to install centos manually from their iso and then install sipx if the installer doesn't support it. You may also consider how you will be connecting their lines (fxo gateway or itsp trunks). When using itsp trunks a firewall will needed. These can be embedded and very green. ============================ Tony Graziano, Manager Telephone: 434.984.8430 Fax: 434.984.8431 Email: [email protected] LAN/Telephony/Security and Control Systems Helpdesk: Telephone: 434.984.8426 Fax: 434.984.8427 Helpdesk Contract Customers: http://www.myitdepartment.net/gethelp/ ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] <[email protected]> To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Sent: Fri Oct 23 13:45:26 2009 Subject: [sipx-users] Server Sizing Recommendation - Replacing NortelNorstar616 I have volunteered to help a local non-profit community organization to replace their aging Nortel Norstar 616 with a new system. I am seeking recommendations on specs for a server to support about ~15 phones with average of 3-4 concurrent calls. I am looking for a green, quiet, lower power solution, if possible. According to the website, I figure this would be "Small Form Factor PC (e.g. Dell Optiplex or similar) with 1 GB RAM.". However the site doesn't make much mention on processor type or speed. Currently, I am contemplating a dual-core Intel Atom 330 1.6ghz processor, 2GB of RAM, and 64GB Solid State SATA drive. Would this be suitable for a small system or would the dual-core Atom be under powered? Any feedback appreciated.
