Hello list.

I have a couple of questions about the LCR module.

The first one is about the “ping” column in the gw table.  I guess this column stores the “results” of execute a ping to the gateways in the LCR.gw table isn’t?.

So how this “ping” is executed? It is just a simple ICMP message? Or maybe is an OPTIONS sip message to the gateway?.  I saw in the lcr_mod.c file some ping_method, ping_interval variables, but in the README file there is nothing about the “ping”.  Could someone clarify this to me this?

Second.  In the mysql “gw” table there is a column called “flags”.  According to the README file it said that this column can store gateways “capabilities”.  For example, and I hope that someone could guide me here, can i store the maximum channels available per gateway?, and use it to select or not select a gateway according the gateway channels used?.

I hope that someone could help me here.

Thank in advance,

Regards,

Ricardo Martinez.-
