NO
As currently the rtp-proxy has to run on the same
host as SER it does not
make much sence IMHO to think about taking over rtp-proxy sessions. Then
you would need some kind of rtp-proxy session replication, which should
be easy when the nathelper module and the rtp proxy ever uses IP protocol
for communication. But all this will only work if the backup server takes
over the IP of the failed server, and you are not using SRV backup
servers for example (except that a SRV backup can obviously also can
takeover the IP).
Is it yet possible to build redundancy on top of SRV? I tested some
clients (Xlite, Budgetone-100, Windows Messenger 4.7) wether they use
SRV records to locate the proxy and Messenger is the only one who uses it.
