The current limiting factor on that 5000 concurrent calls testing is 
Asterisk machines to handle RTP, and that's purely based on the number 
of test machines available to us, not any inherent limit of Enswitch.

If OpenSER became the limit, we'd use multiple active OpenSER machines, 
which Enswitch 2.8 (which we're releasing next month) will support as 
part of the new geographically diverse cluster architecture.
