[Asterisk-Users] How to make Asterisk to generate and terminate calls

[Ravi Shankar]

Hi,
  I would like to connect two linux machines running asterisk and then 
originate SIP calls from one asterisk and terminate it on the other 
asterisk. Terminating the call is not a problem because I can give the 
call handle to say AGI application on the terminating asterisk. How do i 
originate a call from the asterisk ? Is this possible using AGI ? Any 
pointers in this regard would be of great help.

This type of application can be used two simulate bulk calls and find 
out what is the maximum limit for the asterisk in terms of CPU 
utilization, memory, etc. before it can be deployed in production 
environment.

thanks,
Ravi
