I'm no where near an expert (or even very knowledgable on some of this stuff), but a fair number of machines (regardless of whether its a 7960 or whatever) will not fail over to secondary/backup gateways unless the primary is totally non-responsive. That usually means if the proxy responds with even an icmp port unreachable, it is still responding and the phone won't fail over to the backup. To validate, I'd suggest disconnecting the primary proxy to see if the phone then registers with other servers.
Also, the v4.4 release notes for Open Caveats says... "CSCea15061: Outbound Proxy reREGISTER fails due to incorret logic". The Resolved Caveats tend to suggest that some related problems were fixed in v4.4, so this must have been an issue with previous releases. > -----Original Message----- > I'm sorry to ask this question, but I thought I'd rather ask it here before > messing up with cisco. > Is anybody running cisco 7960 in redundant configuration? > I mean I want the phone to be registered with both primary and > backup proxy (asterisks) so that service continues to work in case of > primary > proxy failure.
