The typical scenario is that the conference only starts when the moderator logs in. In this hub and spoke design, you need some external program which watches the ESL sockets and performs the control actions.<br><br>If bandwidth is so much of concern, you can use Speex codec, as it gives a pretty good voice quality and moderate bandwidth usage. The CPU usage will grow, of course. Then the hub boxes would compress the voice and send each call to the central conference bridge. In this case, you would keep the full moderator control, and nothing needs to be developed on top of today's

Every call to main conference server will have it's own audio. Defeats the purpose of having a distributed setup.</div>
<div dir="ltr">But I don't think the control issue is a big deal. You could always implement a web gui that kept track of participants and use that to control the conference on the edge servers. A little ESL, some PHP/AJAX and you should be fine if yiu're comfortable with those technologies.</div>

Hi, in that case, how about a star network of freeswitch?<br>
<br>
One FS is central and other FS servers around transfer calls to it, in a way that they setup one stream only to main and merge all connected callers to it.<br>
