Depends of what you want to do... For a real time billing for prepaid, you will need a b2bua, Ser will not give you the possibility to do that(I think). For postpaid, Ser is enough.

Would this also be a viable solution for terminating calls to other SIP gateways instead of just PSTN or would SER-only be sufficient for that?
Thanks, Waldo

Well we use it for pstn calls and have canreinvites=yes, then Asterisk is most of the time outside of the media path. The only job of this server is the billing and routing calls to pstn. Furthermore, the number of simultaneous calls Asterisk can manage depends on the hardware u will use, transcoding and so on. We had more than 50 simultaneous calls on a p4 with 2Gb ram, I really don't (yet) know what will be the limit.

Dear Olivier,
Im interesting to know how asterisk behave in heavy load? how many calls at a moment is your asterisk handling?
Hello again,
Just try asterisk b2bua, it works fine for us. http://developer.berlios.de/projects/b2bua/
The developper is very kind, subscribe to his mailing list.
Good luck,
Olivier

Hello Olivier,
I have about two week spending lot of time trying to make it work but no luck, so thank you for saving my time.
Is there any known way to make prepaid/postpaid billing with SER?
Best Regards Hekuran,
Just a question, do you use Vovida b2bua?
If yes, forget it, development has been stoped 2 years ago and it's very incomplete. For example, Vovida b2bua is unable to manage re-invites.
Just to avoid wasted time for you

Hello,
Im trying to make a combination of radius and b2bua to make some prepaid/postpaid billing. Till now I have managed to make SER talk to b2bua and b2bua talk to Radius, but Im not clear yet where does ser or radius stores the call detail records (radacct table is always empty).
Also my question about prepaid: is there any database schema that provides tables where I store user credit or so (as it says that b2bua have bundled billing system) or should it be done using radius attributes? If so are there any extra attributes that I have to add in dictionary?
Question about ser: When a user registers with radius it registers as username@domain (100@some-domain.com) but when I try to call, SER send the call to b2bua using only username ([100]) so the user can not be found. is there any way to register the user only by username?
