Clustering

Hi Gabe,
Well I was going to use the SBC to have all phone point to the SBC, and then the SBC takes care of what servers it needs to register with, and then keep a state of what server the RTP stream and the phone need to connect to. Basically like a load balancer would. This is what I understood from Juniper's site. Have you seen anything on this?

Thanks!
Ron

Hi Ron,
    I've been following your thread.  I noticed you mentioned about a Juniper Session Border Controller.  I checked online and read about it, but was unsure exactly how it could intergrate with Asterisk.  How would you have planned to use that device?  I am interested because one of my upstream providers mentioned I should be using an SBC.

Hello All,

Ive been doing more and more research on trying to setup a cluster/load balancer for Asterisk. All the Asterisk boxes would be using a config that is the same between them all (via a DB), but we want one location to point the phones to, and from there that machine/device will send it to a Asterisk server so the call can be processed. I know you cant balance the whole call, ie: once the call is started the RTP stream has to go to the same server, but a new call could go to a different server if perhaps the 1st server was unreachable.

Has anyone tried this, or got this to work? Ive been looking at using a Juniper Session Border Controller, but not sure if thats gonna do the trick, and then we also have SER..

Any comments would be great!

Thanks
Ron
