Hello Jasen,
just a quick guess – but have you already tried with a larger value suggested from the documentation?
>1 sip:10.0.0.1:5060 weight=75
>1 sip:10.0.0.2:5060 weight=25
Cheers,
Henning

Subject: [SR-Users] Kamailio weighted dispatch problems
I am trying to change our request dispatching from round-robin to a weight-based method (ds_select_dst() algorithm 9 vs. algorithm 4) and am having a hard time getting an asymmetrical dispatch pattern enabled.
In testing, I'm dispatching to two Ringswitch servers and trying to send three times the traffic to one instance.
My destinations list file previously set both endpoints in the same group and simply provided the SIP URI for each. My new list file adds the attribute `weight` to each endpoint and looks like this:
>1 sip:10.0.0.1:5060 weight=3
>1 sip:10.0.0.2:5060 weight=1
However, when I throw a couple thousand calls at Kamailio, I always end up with an almost perfect split of calls to both ringswitches. Regardless of the weights I choose, I never see variation in the dispatched
load.
Does anyone have experience with this issue and have some guidance?
