[Serusers] Load balancing with Mediaproxy

[Greger V. Teigre]

Hm, I think I'm the one who's confused. Have a misunderstood your setup?  I 
thought you tried to loadbalance RTP across several mediaproxy servers 
(where you only need one SER, but multiple mediaproxies).  When you talk 
about two SERs, do you want to load balance the messaging as well? In that 
case, there's a completely different complexity (check out 
carrier-grade/NAT/redundancy/scalability discussions on the list). But also 
(luckily) quite easy to set up two mediaproxies for two SERs (same setup on 
both), but you will then have four servers...
