Hi,

At work are planning to use SER to route traffic between a pstn gateway, Asterisk, and direct lookups.  We would like to set up the routing to try a second gateway if it cannot contact the primary gateway.  Below is the config file and attached is the output from a sample session.

Ideally, we would like to see

If( ! forward to GW2)

            Forward(GW1);

}

From what I’ve read in the archives, forward() cannot be used (yes, I tried it anywayJ ).  The config below does get to the failure_route but at that point two errors appear:

1(21749) ERROR: t_forward_nonack: no branched for fwding

1(21749) ERROR: failure_route: t_relay_to failed

Any tips/pointers?

David
