[asterisk-biz] Assistance with RFP

[Bryan M. Johns]

I would recommend breaking apart your SIP switching from your  
voicemail, conferencing and other advanced apps in an install of that  
size.  Asterisk Business Edition on a high-end 2970 or so could handle  
that many seats in one server, but would not scale to the customer's  
request.

Consider a three server design.  1 OpenSER SIP switch, 1 Asterisk  
Voicemail and Conferencing unit and 1 CDR aggregation, call recording  
and reporting platform.
