Here are some aditional details to what i'm trying to acomplish:

I'm trying to create a redundant SipX solution involving 2 SipX servers.
We are exclusively using sip trunks for all our implementations. We are 
not using IP/PSTN gateways.

First i tried implementing it using integrated high availability 
solution, which while it works internally, the secondary server cannot 
make outside calls. I've tried making that work, but i am unable to 
start SipX bridge service (don't know how). I found instructions for 
manual HA but was unable to find the files mentioned there for stopping 
those services. I assume its probably due to those instructions being 
for an older version(3.8, 3.10).

I've also tried doing it in another way, basically installing 2 separate 
SipX machines, then creating similar settings on both of them (same 
users and setup, different name and ip). Then i added a script on my 
router(mikrotik) that changes port forwarding and blocks several ports 
depending on server availability. The script is pretty simple, basicaly 
making a ping to main server, and if it has no response, switches ports 
to secondary server. The script is switching Sip Trunk from 1 server to 
the other. On the IP phone i created 2 user accounts, 1 for each server, 
and this solution works. The problem here is i'd like to use a single 
account for both servers. Part of the phones we need to implement have 
only one account. I figured out how to set up dns to work, but the 
account won't register on secondary server.
I assume it's due to different server name, and since this solution 
works on HA, i think i should be able to make this work. I probably need 
to replicate (or setup) Sip registrar but don't know how. How does this 
work in High Availability?

Basicaly i need to get one of this solutions to work, and both are 
similar with a failure at different locations. Thus i believe this 
should work, if i can either get the bridge up and running on secondary 
server in high availability(and then using script on router for port 
forwarding), or registrar in the secondary solution.
