RE: [Users] Load Balancing

I use UltraMonkey (www.ultramonkey.org), but it's basically a packaging of Linux-HA and LVS. LVS supports connection persistence, and that works very well. The level of granularity of load balancing is on a per-IP basis, not per-transaction (LVS only does L3 load-balancing, not L4-7). But assuming a reasonable value for the persistence timeout, there should be no problems with SIP transactions (and I haven't experienced anything problematic). Ldirectord also supports SIP health checks (they're pretty basic OPTIONS requests, but it's something), and will fail over to working SIP proxies. Of course, in-progress transactions will fail as the OpenSER process on one box doesn't have the stateful knowledge of the other.
