Hello,

Indeed, we had some discussions with Ken Rice about interconnecting OpenSIPS and FreeSwitch. The main idea is to make use of the Load-Balancer module in OpenSIPS (please note this is not a simple dispatcher or probabilistic/hashing routing, but actually a LOAD based routing engine) and have this LB module connected into FreeSwitch to collect information about real load on FS (currently, LB module in OpenSIPS counts as load the number of ongoing calls). But as here suggested, the load on FS can be evaluated based on CPU/memory usage or any other internal FS parameters which may be relavant.

The interconnection between OS and FS can be either via one of the FS APIs (having the two software talking directly) or, as Jay suggested, directly via SIP OPTIONS (when to add the load info in replied can be determined based on the src IP of the OPTIONS request).

This would be a pretty cool feature and I know that OpenSIPS guys have discussed such a feature with FreeSWITCH dev. This would be a great addition for load balancing.

    Hello List,

    i read too the nice
    http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Enterprise_deployment Enterprise
    Deployment Setups.
    Personaly i run FS 1.2.x as Session Border Controller where sip
    clients could register and internal (3rd party) IVRs could reachs
    the clients.

    I plan to use DNS SRV on the to scale up the FS Servers and have
    fault talerance.

    For that i have to diffrent uplinks that i could use for the DNS
    SRV Records and AFAIK i could use track-calls=true in sofia profiles
    to track the right incoming/outgoing profile.

    The only thing i missed is that my 3rd party IVRs used FS as
    outbound proxy and therefore only one IP is spezified on the
    internal network.

    With an virtual IP on the FS side i could solve that but then the
    FS servers is IMHO limited to be a active/passiv duo.

    Any ideas how to handle that?

        So I want to bash out a feature I was thinking of, please can
        anyone chime in some ideas on this.

        So its easy to have OpenSIP / Kamailio ( dispatcher ) send SIP
        Options to FS to see if its responding ..  this is great ...

        My request would be to have some kind of control over the
        response FS Sends back.
        What I would love is to respond with idle CPU , current SPS /
        Max SPS or channels / Max Channels.

        This is only a high level "this would be nice" , so I havnt
        totally thought this through but...
        we would have to provide an ACL for who to provide this back
        to,  coz I wouldnt really want any old guy on the internet
        sending me options and me respond going ... oh yea bro, Im at
        90% ... dont have to try hard to DDOS Me.. :)

        but yea... if we could give this back to the load balancers,
        then we could easily instruct them to back traffic off to this
        gateway.

        the next part is , how do you back off the traffic.
        one option is to have FS respond differently if any of these
        are close to thresholds.
        or to provide these values in custom headers, but that would
        require changes in dispatcher ( which is ok I Guess )

        anyways... I wanted some input on peoples thoughts here..
        let me know what you think.


        Jay
