[cisco-voip] using my DSPs on a 3845

voice-card 0
  no dspfarm

That needs to be corrected first.  Either the command 'dspfarm' or  
'dsp services dspfarm' needs to be present as the first step.

OK - now I'm worried.....

kc-vgw(config)#dspfarm profile 105 conference
kc-vgw(config-dspfarm-profile)#maximum sessions ?
   <0-0>  Number of sessions assigned to this profile


This doesn't seem to make sense to me.

When I ran/run the DSP calc (see below), it says I that one PVDM64  
should suffice (using the optimized result). When I tried adding the  
CLI suggestion, I'm pretty sure it didn't make any difference in the  
show running, which I was told because it was the default.

Optimal Results
voice-card 0
        codec complexity flex

What I have:

voice-card 0
  no dspfarm
!

It gets a little murky with the flex DSPs and how many are required  
depend on what voice codecs are being used.

Your best bet is to configure a sccp profile for either conference or  
transcode.  See what the 'max-sessions' command will allow you to  
set.  If you have enough free DSPs then when you do 'max-sess ?' the  
result will include a non-zero number, ie '0-10' or similar instead  
of '0-0'.

Yes you do need to add a CFB in CM with a name that matches whatever  
you set in the 'register' command under the sccp profile on the router.

------------------------END OF FLEX VOICE CARD 0

I gather that each DSP can handle 16 voice calls, so if I have two  
T1s = 23 calls * 2 (each has their own Dchannel)=46 calls / 16 = 2.875.

So that means three DSPs are required to handle my voice calls and I  
have one left for conferencing.

Do I just create a DSP farm with one DSP and somehow assign it as a  
conference resource in Call Manager?
