I'm new to the list and new to sipx too... I'm looking at whether I want to move from a less than reliable hosted IP PBX to an in house sipx server. Part of the decision on this for me is how to address list mile issues and Disaster Recovery (DR). Here is what I was hoping to do.. Looking for some validation that this can be done.
I'm thinking I would first setup the primary server in my office and after it's all configured and setup correctly with SIP trunks from Broadvox, setup a secondary server on an amazon ECS on demand instance. Essentially once the configuration was transferred over the secondary server and validated, I would turn off the instance and only turn it on if I lost local connectivity etc. While I wouldn't be able to make outgoing calls (as presumably my link would be down) incoming calls would still get routed to my auto-attendant, Voicemail etc. Is this a doable scenario? Anyone else doing something similar? Among many other unknowns for me at this point is how to get the secondary server to "take over" in the event of no communication to the primary for the SIP trunks. Any guidance, validation etc you could provide on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! _______________________________________________ sipx-users mailing list [email protected] List Archive: http://list.sipfoundry.org/archive/sipx-users/
