Hey,
Why do you think using OpenSIPs is not going to work for you ? You can
always add SIP trunks on openSips and based upon which trunks getting the
call you can LB or/and FO to as many asterisk servers as you want !

 failover...certainly good for ideas.

 single server?

   Hi,



 I'm trying to plan a system of clustered asterisk machines where a number
 of SIP trunks will be hosted on the platform. Each trunk will be hosted for
 a specific customer who owns it and therefore payment is handled directly
 between the customers and their trunk-providers, each trunk will have about
 50-200 simultaneous calls.



 No SIP phones will be directly connected to the platform, my thought is
 that the asterisk machines should only receive incoming and make outgoing
 calls through the trunks, and then connect the calls with each other.



 To make this scalable and have the option of running an infinite number of
 sip-trunks, I need a good way to load-balance my asterisk servers and
 implement failover support and also be able to add / replace the machines in
 the cluster in a safe and reliable way.



 I'm have some experience building single asterisk solutions but I have
 never worked with load balancing of multiple asterisk machines.



 Is it possible to configure all trunks on a single asterisk setup which is
 then reflected over a cluster of asterisk machines? If I have a cluster of
 machines, I guess I need some kind of front-end application / system? I will
 then also need to be able to connect calls between the machines, the calls
 to be connected with each other will always be incoming and outgoing on the
 same trunk.



 In other words, I want to create a large cluster of asterisk machines to
 appear and operate as a single asterisk server.



 I've looked at projects like OpenSIP but it feels like this is not really
 what I need?



 I really appreciate if someone can help me get on the correct path here, I
 need all the feedback I can get.





 Thanks in advance!





 Best regards

 Tobias

Going with the flow on top posting.

You just need an SBC

correctly.
