Hey Folks:

For a FS box that's generally handling higher amounts of
inbound/outbound call traffic (say 500 - 700 calls) and registrations
(30 - 50 per second), is it recommended to split off the signaling and
media traffic onto separate NICs for performance reasons? Or is it
better to split all the traffic for the phones and outside traffic to
carriers into separate profiles and split those profiles onto separate
NICs? or perhaps none of the above and there's still a better solution I
didn't mention Wink ?

Thanks,

Gabe

If the nic's have their own bus you could do that to improve network
performance of sip signaling and media... now the neat thing would be
to have an option to have say three network interfaces and have
FreeSWITCH round robin them per call. I smell a bounty.

I think the big problem is still going to be interrupts and other
networking stuff.

Wouldn't be a huge deal if each card has a dedicated bus then it
wouldn't be fighting for bandwidth... its still going to be hitting a
limit at some point but you might get more milage out of it.
