Folks,
I'm working on a 5 node network in the following topology:
Host1 - Edge Proxy 1 --- Core Proxy - Edge Proxy 2 - Host2
The proxy machines contain SIP Server installations, the hosts contain user agent
software. I am able to make a call end to end between the hosts, but when I look at the
traffic in wireshark, the core proxy is actually just forwarding the messages at the
IP-layer. I would like actual SIP routing to occur, where a host would send the INVITE to
the edge, and the edge has to forward it to the core etc, with these messages actually
being processed at the SIP layer for all proxy nodes. I've been trying to use the
dynamic routing module, thought I'm not sure this is really right for what I need,
simple static routing would likely work as well. Is it necessary for me to rewrite the
route{} functions of a proxy script? I'm not sure if I'm approaching this problem
the right way. Eventually I would like to have multiple core servers and be able to
failover between them, but trying to keep it simple for now.
Thanks,
Mike
