hi-
I am looking into using SER as part of our test infrastructure for a SIP-based messaging system and have 2 questions: one about SER capacity, and one about the best way to configure it. Firstly though, the setup:
We use a script-driven inhouse SIP/RTP test tool in association with our messaging system which can either send or accept SIP invitations and process the associated RTP streams (eg act as UAS or UAC). This tool has a capacity of ~125 ports.
We need the messaging system to create around 800 concurrent SIP/RTP sessions (dial out), and our system allows only one outbound sip gateway. I therefore need to configure a sip redirector which can take incoming SIP invites from the messaging system and redirect them to one of 7 test tool clients (125x7 > 800).
First question, re capacity - the 800 concurrent sessions will be staggered and spread over 2 minutes. This works out at about 7 SIP invites per second. Should SER be able to handle this (proposed SER box =2.8Ghz, 512mB RAM).
Secondly, the Request-URIs of the SIP invites sent by the messaging system are structured, and it is easy to tell from the Request-URI which client machine we want this invite to be redirected to. Eg:
1000000000-1000000999@dom.com -> should go to client 1 1000001000-1000001999@dom.com -> should go to client 2 1000002000-1000002999@dom.com -> should go to client 3 1000003000-1000003999@dom.com -> should go to client 4 etc
Rather than registering all these accounts on SER, is there an alternative way I can get SER to redirect various SIP invites using wildcards to check the structure of their r-URI? eg 1000000...@dom.com redirects to A 1000001...@dom.com redirects to B 1000001...@dom.com redirects to C etc.
Thanks for advice.
Tom
