[Freeswitch-users] Lan redundancy

Very interesting,

I was thinking to something similar.. I thought to create e third 
virtual interface... So I'll have to use network bonding to all the pc 
in the network...
The two networks will have switch/router (i think hircshmann) so the two 
networks will be the specular image of the other. In the interface named 
bond0 will be configured on the same network of the two network 
interface or I have to create an virtual third network? On the softphone 
for the server proxy I'll set the address of the interface bond0 of the 
server freeswitch right?

Thanks

Alessandro Luppi
