[Asterisk-Users] Dynamic dialplan

[Juan Jose Comellas]

We intend to use Asterisk with a very large dialplan (with a lot of 
functionality for 3000+ users). Each user will be able to change several of 
his parameters in the dialplan, so we will be forced to reload the diaplan 
constantly. Has anybody else any previous experience with a similar 
installation? There are some things that we'd like to know, if anybody can 
help us. These are:

- Is this something that can be done safely with Asterisk? 

- Can we have a diaplan configuration update every 5 or 10 minutes without 
service interruption? 

- What happens to new calls while the dialplan configuration is being 
reloaded? 

- What happens to active calls after the dialplan configuration is updated? 

- Can we do partial updates of the dialplan (e.g. update a specific context 
instead of the whole dialplan configuration)?

- Can Asterisk have its dialplan in a database instead of having it always in 
memory?


Thanks.
