Dear List

Please excuse my ignorance ... a couple of questions on server sizing (D---
2950)

- Hard Drive Size for open source * or *BE?

- # of Gps Ethernet ports (1 or 2? ) (I noticed one poster using one port
for incoming calls and 2nd port for outgoing calls)

- Any value to 4 GB Ram?
Thanks!

Known the number of simultaneous calls you expect to handle, the number of
extensions, transcoding (or not?), voicemail server, BRI/PRI cards? etc.
might help us help you...

But before that, have a look at the WiKi - there's a lot of stuff there on
provisioning ...

For a basic installation of Asterisk, a Dell 4XX server is good enough.
Unless you need a really big monster (hundreds of concurrent calls and
such).

the OS and everything should fit nicely in 10GB. Maybe 20GB, if you have
lots of other things. In short: no worries here.

1 GB interface should be good enough for around 16,000 concurrent g711
calls, in theory. I don't think that this is your bottleneck. In most
cases even a 100MB NIC would work just as well without being a bottleneck.
