<div>The matter is with the greater density of port is with the chan drivers. chan_ss7 has no issue with higher densisty of ports, but the sip driver of asterisk sometimes gets segfault. If you want to use the ast sip driver, better to look into the code and do the bug fixing for the segfault.</div>

<div>The choice between libss7 or chan_ss7, is still a matter of debate. We had pretty good luck with chan_ss7. Using a custom made server with quad core Xeon processor and 4 GB of RAM, we put 8 x E1 into one machine. Best of all, chan_ss7 supported sharing of 1 signalling link over multiple boxes.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>The order would be as follows:</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>1. Dahdi-kernel & Dahdi-tools (I used the combined download)</div>
<div>2. Asterisk 1.6.x</div>
<div>3. chan_ss7 1.3 or 1.4 (and copy the chan_ss7 over to the modules folder)</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Sangoma does claim to have gone as high as 32 E1s in one box.</div>
