Hi Duane,

More or less is the same (forcing a call as load for a destination without actually doing LB) - in your case, what is different is the way you identify the destination - But if I'm not wrong, using the IP of the destination should work in both cases (when call comes form GW with IP X and when you force routing to GW with IP X).

Ali,

Just to add to the scenarios when you don't use load balancer but want to keep up with load.....

If you are load balancing to Asterisk servers but you don't use the load_balance() function because you want an "attended transfer" or someone is call for a "Parked Call". You want to make sure the call goes to the Asterisk server that has the current call for an Attended Transfer or the call goes to the Asterisk server that has the parked call.

    Hello All,

    Not sure if this is the right place to suggest changes/new
    features. I have a request for a new function for the
    load_balancer module.

    Load_balancer knows how many resources are available for each
    gateway and keeps track of active calls for each resource to
    distribute the calls accordingly. This works well if the
    gateways's calls always go through the load_balancer module.
    However, this is not always the case.

    Let's say I have a number of gateways for termination and I use
    the load_balancer module to distribute the calls. If there happen
    to be some outgoing calls from these gateways, load balancer would
    not know about them and the number of active calls and available
    resources would be inaccurate.

    This can be fixed if there was a function to add a call to a
    gateway's resource (maybe based on the IP address) without calling
    the load_balance() function.

    This functionality can also be used when you are using resources
    of one of your gateways but outside the load balancer module such
    as routing a test number to a particular gateway and so on.

    Regards,
    Ali Pey
