Hi Wasim, thank you for your answer. I definitively agree with you when you say that the Signaling Link wont be the bottleneck. But I'd like to know if there are any limits about the total amount of bearer channels (and so about the TDM links) that chan_ss7 can handle per single server. Has anyone any large capacity implementation out there?

Hi, how many links can a single box (with a single singaling link) handle? Is there any limit? Has anyone pushed chan_ss7 to the hardware limits (cpu usage, ram, etc.)?</blockquote></span><div><br>fulvio:<br>
<br>
the theoretical max for a single 64kbps signaling link is fairly high<br>
so you'll run out of asterisk way before the link becomes the limiting factor ..<br>
<br>
the rest should be as per any asterisk sizing parameter (what cpu, what
codecs, what sort of dialplan, how may call setup/teardowns per second,
what else running on the box) .. so, in short ... it depends<br>
<br>
btw, an interesting article on linux vs solaris for asterisk <br>
