Hi,
What is the correct response for a PSTN gateway to reply with when
their entire network is congested. aka "Please don't try this or any
other server on our network for this call, but feel free to use
another gateway(that isn't ours) as we don't control the end point and
your call still might go through"
It seems like most of the codes were designed with more of a peering
relationship in mind not with the fact that there are multiple
gateways (providers) that each have multiple gateways (IPs)
In this instance there is a PSTN gateway which has provided us with
multiple IPs to send calls to. If their network is congested for that
call then they spit back a 503. We then in turn try to send the call
down each on of their IPs and of course keep getting a 503 for each.
At first I was a little frustrated that a provider would send a server
specific error for a network wide issue. After a laymans reading of
the RFC it doesn't appear they have any other option.
Could someone enlighten me a little in this situation?
Cheers
Miles Scruggs
