asterisk users - Feb 2008 - Multiple Asterisk Servers. One Conference

Hi guys,

 

I currently have about 10 Asterisk servers scattered around the place
each hosting their own dynamic conference centre.  Is there any way that
when people join these conference centres on each server that somehow
Asterisk bridges the conference centres on each server to form one large
conference?

 

Many Thanks

David.

In theory, this wouldn't be difficult at all.  I'd imagine it could go
something like this: set up one central conference server.  Each
branch server would call an extension (zap/sip/iax/whatever) on the
main server, which in turn would dump it into a certain meetme room.
Alternatively, you could have the central server call out to the
branch servers and join them to the meetme room.

In practice, though, I have no idea how the audio quality would be.
