Each session is the equivalent to a concurrent call. Supposedly, a session requires a port on the SIP trunk, and each trunk can host X number of ports, depending on the carrier or the bandwidth required per port. I think the codec may also influence this, as some codecs like G.711 require more bandwidth than the compressed G.729…..<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>From:</span></b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'> cisco-voip-bounces@puck.nether.net [mailto:cisco-voip-bounces@puck.nether.net] <b>On Behalf Of </b>Lelio Fulgenzi<br><b>Sent:</b> Wednesday, October 26, 2011 1:39 PM<br><b>To:</b> Travis Dennis<br><b>Cc:</b> Cisco VOIP<br><b>Subject:</b> Re: [cisco-voip] Wait, what?
