<p>I also tried the ring strategy but, I did not like the fact that if you loose one server the ring may get broken.</p>
<p>Maybe this is still better in the end but when you have a lot of server it is more likely that one server may be removed from service.</p>
<p>This is why I am testing with a "master" node<br>
Not sure what is you opinion</p>
<p>Example of broken state with a ring config and 4 servers:</p>
<pre><code>/etc/init.d/kamailio_second stop
/etc/init.d/kamailio_third stop
/etc/init.d/kamailio_second start
</code></pre>
<p>You end up with</p>
<pre><code>show dmq bus: first
