I was more thinking about a linux-ha heartbeat system between the redundant devices. The voicemail propagation is not a problem as I don't use it, and the dialplan is stored on a remote database (that's another problem to make redundant :) ).

The point I have to check now is how to configure GnuGK,SER & Asterisk to do round-robin routing.

I'm looking forward to see it work ... that's a really interesting project.

Hello,

I'm trying to find a good solution for load-balancing of several Asterisk box, for each VoIP protocol (IAX,SIP,H323). My idea is to have a front VoIP router (or several) who dispatches the calls of the different boxes.

This routing can be done with SER for SIP (redirect server) & GnuGK for H323 (gkrouted 2). Now for IAX, is it possible to configure an Asterisk box to act as a "Redirect server" and not as a "proxy" ?

Any help would be appreciated, even you're telling me I'm going in the wrong direction.


Hi,

Are the asterisk boxes on the same subnet ?
If so, you could setup an OpenBSD CARP combi.
It will also provide failover for when one of the boxes go
down. All you have to do then is to setup the load balancing
stuff in PF and you're set.
What's next is the voicemail and dialplan propagation on all
the boxes that take part in the loadbalance setup. Guess you
already have something in mind for that cause your post is
talking about connections.
