The idea here is not to load balance or distribute media streams using
SRV records. I do know mediaproxy supports that. But the idea is that
if we have 1000 users at ISP A, we might decide to collocate a server
(with rtpproxy or mediaproxy) with them so we can guarantee latencies of
under 10ms.
We are not talking about guess work here. This is about a carefully
designed plan, hand-to-hand with the ISP(s) in question. So what we
need to figure out is how can our 1000 users at ISP #1 use MEDIAPROXY
#1, 1000 users at ISP #2, use MEDIAPROXY #2, and so forth.
If it can't be done then certainly splitting up the users into different
SER servers can do the trick, but we wanted to ask around first.
Thanks,
Andres.

offhand, but Mediaproxy is
designed specifically for that sort of thing using DNS srv records and the
like to distribute proxy loads.
Geographic distribution, however, isn't as impotant as some sort of
least-cost-routing concept... the idea being that even if I have a proxy
server in the room next to me, if it's connected via a network segment that's
overall slower or has more hops than the server across town, then the one
across town is going to be the better server for my needs.

Hi,
Can anybody think of a way to assign a subscriber's call to a
specific rtpproxy? The idea is to have one main SER server but
multiple rtpproxy servers handling the media stream close to where
the subs are. The SER server can be a continent away but the
rtpproxy is in the same city as the users. I was thinking of using
ACL (groups) somehow but not sure if it is at all possible.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
