[Asterisk-Users] Want to use Asterisk instead of existingMeridianNorstar system ... need some help

[Wiley Siler]

I run a system with 2 cards with no issues related that I can tell..

Per the whole interrupt conver, 5 sounds like way too many.
Wouldn't something like this work though?

What's the reason for configuring the outbound zap group in reverse
order of the incoming rollover?

I'd be a little worried about the 5000 interrupts/s those boards would
generate.  Are people actually running systems with that many wcfxs
cards?
