[asterisk-users] Asterisk is not designed for University with largeuser base?

[Luis Morales]

Very complex installation,

so try to star with:

1) Compatibility of current phone platform + asterisk. For example,
you can convert current extension as sip extension using fxs ports.
This reduces your cost, you don't need buy 8.000 ip phones and install
an new wired network.
2) Planning and do an asterisk cluster based building an locations.
Group extensions by buildings/asterisk servers.
4) Planning and do asterisk network with and distributed dial plan and trunking
5) Try  locate an asterisk specialists
6) believe in asterisk....!


Regards,


Luis Morales
