I'm trying to set up kamailio dispatcher to distribute calls to 2 asterisk servers. So far, the failover case seems ok, but I cannot get the dispatcher to distribute load. All calls are going to the last destination entry in the dispatcher table even if I have set the maxload attributes. I'm using algorithm 10 for load distribution. The number of calls sent to one asterisk is well above the maxload. Hope someone more experienced in dispatcher can review my config and give me some recommendations. Thanks in advance.
Here is the content of dispatcher table in postgresql db.
select * from dispatcher; id | setid | destination | flags | priority | attrs | description ----+-------+--------------------+-------+----------+---------------------------+------------- 1 | 1 | sip:10.0.1.31:5061 | 0 | 0 | duid=asterisk1;maxload=25 | Asterisk1 2 | 1 | sip:10.0.1.33:5061 | 0 | 0 | duid=asterisk2;maxload=25 | Asterisk2 (2 rows)
