I was thinking of building a small asterisk machine for a non-profit. &nbsp;I was reading the hardware requirements, and the site lists a pentium 4 3ghz with 512 megs ram on a 20 gig HD for an office that runs 60 did numbers, with 100 phones in two offices to handle all the call routing.<br />

I want to run 10 phones, will a dual core 1.8 atom processor be enough to run it? <a href="http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813138299" rel="ugc">http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813138299</a>&nbsp;is what I had in mind. &nbsp;A small SSD, 4gb of ram, the 64 bit version of Asterisk. &nbsp;End phones will most likely be cisco 5108G.

Voice over IP (VoIP) is a methodology and group of technologies for the delivery of voice communications and multimedia sessions over Internet Protocol (IP) networks, such as the Internet. Other terms commonly associated with VoIP are IP telephony, Internet telephony, broadband telephony, and broadband phone service. The term specifically refers to the provisioning of communications services (voice, fax, SMS, voice-messaging) over the public Internet, rather than via the public switched telephone network (PSTN).  Examples of the VoIP protocols are H.323, Media Gateway Control Protocol (MGCP), Session Initiation Protocol (SIP), H.248 (also known as Media Gateway Control (Megaco)), Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP), Real-time Transport Control Protocol (RTCP), Secure Real-time Transport Protocol (SRTP), Session Description Protocol (SDP), and Inter-Asterisk eXchange (IAX).
