asterisk users - Sep 2005 - maximum concurrent ZAP channels .... max conf ports ...

Hi All,

Is it possible to go beyond 250 concurrent ZAP channels with some tweaking
or workaround ? Meetme uses zap channels, so we could have a max of 250
conference ports. Is it possible to higher this ?

"An Asterisk system can only handle a *max. of 250 concurrent ZAP
channels*.
This is due to the design limit (255) within the ZAP channel driver."


Thanks,
~Vamsi

Yes, I don't know where you got this information from, but that limit has
been
removed a LONG time ago.  Zaptel provides another interface for opening device
files past the ~250 or so that exist in /dev/zap.  Your biggest limit now is
building a machine that can comfortably handle that many zap channels.
