Maybe just a Metaswitch call-agent (CA9020) would suffice. This would be without the MG2510 or 3510 media-gateway piece.
I wonder if Broadsoft is similarly modular where we could go with just the routing engine without the feature server?
The BroadSoft Network Server is basically a Re-direct Server based on its configuration. I'm happy to be 'shot-down' but I would class it as a product to be used to front the BroadSoft Application Server clusters (Class5), but BroadSoft are not really a 'Class4' type product. For example on a NS you can't : Generate CDRs (its a redirect server) Have any concept of routing based on load (its a redirect server) BroadSoft do now support xen-virtualised deployment for small qtys (ie like... 15k ent/30k res subs) on a 2 or 3 boxes. Looking closely at your 'list' a pair of acme's in HA might probably do the trick, depending on how complex you wanted things. ACME's SBCs are a nice bit of kit to have in your infrastructure... Coupling some ACMEs (for edge) and OpenSER (for core) could give you some pretty sweet capabilities. Cheers, Peter
