About The Algorithm “13” - latency optimized dispatching, Is now reviewed once and tested, it will most likely be ready to merge soon. I want to share my thoughts on it one more time as it is not too late to get more feedback before we merge. I think it is the best algorithm in most use cases, here is why : It is providing round-robin and fail-over with automatic de-prioritization of slow/unresponsive gateways. You probably asked yourself the following questions in the past : "How do I set the thresholds to put a gateway out of service ?" *ds_probing_threshold*, *ds_inactive_threshold* and timers ... - If your thresholds are too strict, you may end up running out of gateway. - If your thresholds are too tolerant, you may end up adding excessive delays to call establishment and using degraded gateways. The automatic de-prioritization can help to address this concern more efficiently by providing more flexibility. - it can react faster than lets say 2 consecutive timeouts. - it will not disable gateways but simply de-prioritize / reorder them if needed. The only main drawback I can imagine is when you always need to evenly distribute calls using round-robin. It may be needed sometimes but in this case it means you are willing accept to send calls to a degraded gateway or trough degraded network paths. Even if you may select to preset a mixture of round-robin sets, thanks to *ds_select_routes* however it will stay static, needs to be configured precisely, and will not react to degradation automatically. I hope this will help use to protect QoS and lower latency of calls routed by Kamailio. Feel free to let me know what you think Julien _______________________________________________ Kamailio (SER) - Users Mailing List sr-users(a)lists.kamailio.org https://lists.kamailio.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sr-users

Thanks Juha!! I have a perfect use case for this algorithm. Is it tryable ? Joel.
