Anything is possible. The biggest challenge with OpenSER is getting past the horrible documentation and the cryptic, one line responses to questions asked in the mailing list.

Hi all, I have three Asterisk servers behind a SER. I want to know how to configure the Dispatcher module of SER to achieve load balance for the Asterisk servers. I have visited http://www.openser.org/docs/modules/1.1.x/dispatcher.html, is there any web sites have more detail information on that? Thanks!
