Hi,
I too can provide you some inputs on this apart from the things which are already
mentioned:
1. You may require a media server for playing prompts, announcements, etc
2. Voice mail server to store and play back voice mails
3. Signaling + Media Gateway if you want to connect to PSTN world
4. Any good performance management/monitoring tool (normally part of OSS) to measure and
manage the performance of the entire infrastructure to assure zero/minimum downtime
Regards,
Benjamin.

It's a fairly big questions you're asking. But basically you're onto it ;-)
Ad 1. You should go for something newer than 9.0
Ad 2. You need to decide on your maintenance schedule and policies for upgrades/patching
etc. Many larger-scale deployments are based on SER 0.9.x because a) it has proven
extremely stable b) it is currently maintained for bug and security fixes and will be for
a while. Others choose openser to get more features, but you need to make sure that you
can handle testing and deployment of new versions more often.
Ad 3. You need a RADIUS server with a user database or you can use mysql (you need mysql
regardless of using RADIUS or not)
