IAX2 now has support for a "trunk" mode ("trunk=yes" in the
appropriate
friend section). Trunk mode allows IAX2 to use bandwidth extremely
effectively. The original impetice (and strategy) was a result of a
mistake in which it was claimed that Asterisk with a T100P could send 96
simultaneous calls over a single T1 using VoIP. Thanks to a suggestion
by the customer, combined with a weekend full of coding, the result is
that Asterisk can now (in principle) send 96 channels over a single T1
using VoIP.

Hi, I've just setup IAX2 trunking between two Asterisk servers. It seems ok except for the reduction on bandwidth use. We're using 4 G729 licensed from Digium. According to the material I've read each additional channel after the first one should only take about 10 kbps but it seems to be taking closer to 40 kbps. I came across a document that stated that you only see savings after 4 concurrent calls. Is this true or should we see the savings after the first one? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
What is the maximum number of calls can a trunked iax2 line take ? siqhamO
