I am looking at http://track.sipfoundry.org/browse/XECS-839 "Can't do gateway redundancy properly". The problem seems to be that our internal serial forking timer (default 20 seconds) causes us to step through gateways if a call is not answered in 20 seconds. This is not desirable behaviour. 20 seconds is too short - the far end's VM doesn't even kick in.
A simple way of improving things is to specify a longer timer for gateways. This can be done by putting an Expires tag in the fallbackrules.xml file. Changing it to 60 seconds gives a much better user experience. Even better might be not to implement any timer for calls going through a gateway - only an explicit (failure) response from the gateway would cause us to try the next one. Does this seem preferable? (though it sounds easy I don't think it's quite as easy to do) Please let me know what you think.
