Hey Norman,

That is possible but not sufficient as:
- any party in the call may hangup the call, so BYE may come to FS (versus being generated by FS) - but I guess you can add the header to the 200 OK BYE too - relying on the BYEs (calls) OpenSIPS will not be able to get a continuous information on the load - if there are no calls, no new updates on the load are received by OS - this may be a major problem if one FS instance is used by multiple OS balancers (or handles call from any other parties).

Currently we are looking into fetching the load information directly via FS APIs.

Well,

You could have FreeSwitch send it in the bye message when each call hangs up. That will give you a rough idea.

ie:

<action application="set" data="sip_bye_h_X-CPU=95%"/>

And you could set this variable in the hang up hook and opensips could use this number for load balancing and strip the info before sending back to the customer.

    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
