System Configuration
MediaCore Softswitch should be installed on several computers in cluster configuration. The best way is to separate the tasks of signal packages processing, media packages transfer and billing tools between different computers. Cluster configuration is used for performing all tasks simultaneously.
Using clusters configuration for MediaCore softswitch operation allows to omit any restriction of the system capacity and performance.
Due to it's universality and flexibility MediaCore softswitch perfectly works with any systems supported operation by RADIUS protocol. Routing and billing capabilities of MediaCore softswitch can easily fit to any of such systems making the ending applications more functional.
Recommended softswitch configuration*:
Billing server + RADIUS server + NAS server(s)
| Billing server | Xeon E5440+ (4x2.83 GHz), 8+ GB RAM, 500+ GB HDD SAS (RAID6) | |||
| RADIUS server | Xeon 3065+ (2x2.33 GHz), 4GB RAM, 2x80+ GB HDD SATA2 |
|||
| With full media proxy (topology hiding) | ||||
| NAS server | Calls |
Hardware | Busy Hour Call Attempts (BHCA) |
Calls Per Second (CPS) |
| 200 concurrent calls | Xeon E3110+ (2x3 GHz), 2GB RAM, 2x160+ GB HDD SATA3, SATA2 | 50000 | H.323 => 10, SIP => 15 |
|
| 500 concurrent calls | Xeon X3220+ (4x2.4 GHz), 4GB RAM, 2x160+ GB HDD SAS, SATA3 |
190000 | H.323 => 25, SIP => 40 |
|
| 2000 concurrent calls | 2 x Xeon E5345+ (8x2.33 GHz), 4+ GB RAM, 2x250 GB HDD SAS, SATA3 | 500000 | H.323 => 80, SIP => 150 |
|
| 8000 concurrent calls | 2 х Xeon W5590 (8x3.33 GHz), 6+ GB RAM, 4x500 SAS Raid 5 |
1400000 | H.323 => 200, SIP => 300 |
|
| Without proxy media (for H.323 fast start required) | ||||
| NAS server | Calls | Hardware | Busy Hour Call Attempts (BHCA) | Calls Per Second (CPS) |
| 600 concurrent calls | Xeon E3110+ (2x3 GHz), 2GB RAM, 2x160+ GB HDD SATA3, SATA2 | 150000 | H.323 => 30, SIP => 40 |
|
| 1500 concurrent calls | Xeon X3220+ (4x2.4 GHz), 4GB RAM, 2x160+ GB HDD SAS, SATA3 |
500000 | H.323 => 50, SIP => 75 |
|
| 6000 concurrent calls | 2 x Xeon E5345+ (8x2.33 GHz), 4+ GB RAM, 2x250 GB HDD SAS, SATA3 | 1400000 | H.323 => 150, SIP => 250 |
|
| 25000 concurrent calls | 2 х Xeon W5590 (8x3.33 GHz), 6+ GB RAM, 4x500 SAS Raid 5 |
4000000 | H.323 => 350, SIP => 600 |
