It could potentially take a week or multiple weeks to resolve an issue, depending on the severity and resources available to resolve the issue. We currently have over 600 open issues that need to be triaged and resolved. If you are looking for immediate help, please utilize the asterisk-users mailing list, or if you need access to a consultant please use the asterisk-biz mailing list. By: Leif Madsen (lmadsen) 2010-02-25 13:13:50.000-0600 This feels like all of a sudden all your peers are hammering your Asterisk system with a request to re-REGISTER all at the same time. Is there any ability for you to spread out that registration? I can't really tell anything from the information you've uploaded other than you have 308 SIP peers cached in memory and that all of a sudden your number of registrations spikes. Without additional information I'm not sure what to suggest here. In fact this likely isn't really a bug, but rather an implementation issue. You may want to take this issue to the asterisk-users mailing list, or find a consultant on asterisk-biz. By: Juan Settecase (juanctkc) 2010-02-26 13:03:42.000-0600 Thanks for all info lmadsen, Attached a file "peers cfg" with example of peers currently configurated in Asterisk. if not what you requested, please ask again. Important: SIPs clients are eMTAs (VOIP ports in Cablemodems) When the problems appears,  I notice that the Peers that have many channels open sip "Init: options" can not ping them. The sip channels constantly open and close (the Call ID is constantly changing) but never cease to appear, generating Asterisk down.
