I have a freepbx with 5 trunks and 40 extension, everything in my network is very fast and I can ping the voip provider around 15ms. I receive random delay when calling or receiving even through the internal network. I read that asterisk virtualized is not a good idea and this is true cause on a test phisical host the problem doesn't happens. I'm using g729 and g722 as codecs. Is there some tweeks to improve the voip performance? I read about Multiqueue in the virtio interface but I don't know how to implement this.
many thanks
 
Did you try to run freepbx in a LXC container.
this is not possible, freepbx comes in a complete centos distro, is possible to install freepbx on top of a debian or centos installation but I didn't had success with this, I always received permission errors due the container limitations
 
I too failed installing freepbx in a container with centos template. But I guess that is because of the install guide from freepbx.

What did work however was creating a new container with centos template and then copying the contents of a freepbx vm root filesystem into the container root filesystem. This is working fine for me. Please note that I use this at home and as such don't have that many extensions and people using the system.
 
I've actually installed freepbx in a container, and it is working well with one trunk line. The container comprises of ubuntu-14.04 and asterisk, the version that was built from source a year ago.

If any of you wanted to test it, let me know.

Thanks,

TP
