[Freeswitch-users] FIFO behaviour

[Alvaro Mari-Thompson]

Hi all,

 

I'd like to clarify the intended behaviour of a FIFO queue, with regards to
the delivery strategy - by default, do FIFO-placed calls ring through to all
members of the queue, or do they do it round-robin?

 

I have the following simple configuration:

 

<fifo name="2000 at sample.com" importance="0">

          <member timeout="20" simo="1"
lag="5">{fifo_member_wait=nowait}user/1001 at sample.com</member>

          <member timeout="20" simo="1"
lag="5">{fifo_member_wait=nowait}user/1002 at sample.com</member>

</fifo>

 

The behaviour I'm seeing is this: When I put a call through to the FIFO, it
first tries to deliver it to 1001, then 1002, and so on. If I put a call
through the first time, it goes to 1001, but if I call again, it starts at
1002.

 

If on the other hand, I put the following in the dialplan:

 

<action application="set" data="fifo_destroy_after_use=true" />

 

The first time I place a call, it follows the round-robin behaviour
described above, but any subsequent calls get delivered simulatenously to
the FIFO members (i.e. 1001 and 1002 ring at the same time until one picks
it up).

 

I can't make head nor tail of how this is supposed to work. I've read
various posts on this list which describe the behaviour as being concurrent,
but so far I have only managed to reliable get it working sequentially.

 

Any comments or ideas welcome.

 

 

Regards,

Alvaro
