Thanks for your help, Unfortunately with kamailio 4.4.4, dispatcher module and your suggestions, I still don't see the SRV record picked up (at least using the kamcmd dispatcher.list command). I didn't try the LCR module yet, I want to be sure first that dispatcher is not able to handle SRV first Thanks Alessio On Wed, Jan 25, 2017 at 8:06 PM, Jeremy Gadd <jeremygadd(a)gmail.com> wrote:

Hello Daniel! My goal is the following: I would like to use a service discovery application (consul is an example) that dynamically guides the kamailio back-ends. As soon as a new back-end registers into the discovery service, kamailio will start sending traffic to it. Since writing a module is not an option right now, I though about using DNS and SRV records to achieve the same result, doing so I will be able to instruct kamailio dynamically, the idea of the dispatcher group, came in my mind only because I'd like to have something outside the main kamailio config, so in the case I have to change the name or do some adjustments, I don't have to restart the entire kamailio but use a RPC command for example.
