Very interesting read. How about defining some specific use cases for which install instructions are provided? Here is what I am thinking of:

1. Redundant HA setup in the same data center with both servers on the same subnet. Major objective: Provide redundancy and failover for call control.

2. Two location setup. The two servers are on two different subnets connected over a VPN (i.e. two locations). Each server is primary responsible for its population of phones and gateways (i.e. the phones and gateways in that location). If the server in one location goes down, the server deployed in the other location would take over.

The second example is what we probably would like to do. The two locations should be independent both having their own PSTN T1 gateway. It should be possible to make and receive calls even if the IP connectivity to the other location is broken. Under normal operating conditions the two systems would look like one big system and phones could have DID numbers from both locations registered.

Would this make sense?
