I'm not sure if two SRST boxes would trigger this, but I know when you create a 
loop which doesn't resolve on both ends (context: a DP to your SIP trunk that 
matches all, followed by a DP to your CM that matches all) it'll loop back and 
forth until a timeout period, after which is goes busy.

I am curious though, why do you need SRST for the upgrades? Do you not have a 
publisher and subscriber that you could fail between?

Subject: [cisco-voip] using two 3945s for SRST during upgrades - how to create 
voip dial-peer statements without causing a loop?


Hello folks,

Question regarding voip dial-peers. I've had some experience, but my design 
skills are lacking, especially when it comes to something like I'm trying to do.

Basically, I'd like to take advantage of our two 3945 routers and failover as 
many phones as possible.  Problem is, it will be too difficult to fail them 
over in ranges.

Can I create a dial-peer that says "5.... Pointer to router A" on router B, and 
"5.... Pointer to router B" on router A and not cause any routing loops?

Is there a built in mechanism that prevents this? Is there something I need to 
configure?

If it's too complicated and requires testing and time, I may have to forfeit 
the idea of using two routers and use just one and selectively pick those who 
failover. I mean, we have to do it anyways, since we have more than the two 
routers could handle. And it's a migration model that I might chose to use 
anyways, i.e. keep one router connected to the cluster and one not.

Thoughts?

Lelio
