Hi people, Do you have pointers to web documents that help me make comparisons between buying a server with two quad core 2.33 ghz or buying a 4 dual core 2ghz server? I am trying to answer a question of performance. It is not important the redundancy/failover or the price of the server. Just the performance. obviously all the hardware specs are the same, the question is the CPU. --

Hi, Some help with dimensioning the server will be gladly accepted. -50 sip phones (g729) or g711(to avoid transcoding) in LAN -an asterisk server (1.4) doing normal pbx functions + voicemail in the same LAN -Some sporadic conferencing with no more than 2 sip phones and maybe 2 or 3 calls coming from the E1 for a total of 5 people in a conference. The asterisk server will get an E1(pri) via one

As stated here: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/index.php?page=Asterisk+cmd+MeetMe A Meetme room uses Ulaw as the audio codec, so if the other channels use different codecs, then * will transcode. Does the app_conference application works the same way? Or if i have SIP/g729 users and i create a conference with other users also at g729 asterisk will not transcode (when using app_conference)?

I have this server I need to put to work.

Is there any way for Asterisk to deliver call legs with stereo channels in the RTP stream? If not, is it possible for Asterisk to keep 2 separate calls, or pairs of legs in a conference call, synced exactly enough (including traveling over
