[Freeswitch-users] Load Balancing

[Oz Mortimer]

Yes, srv records would work but as you said, they don't know the state of you installation, I.e. up, down or indifferent. Also, I have found that there are not many carriers that support srv and those that do lack the full implementation. 

If it was me, I'd put openser or something similar in front of your freeswitch boxes which will act as a router, load balancer.

The is nothing wrong with using heartbeat and corosync but your public ip would need to be on the same subnet for it to work correctly.

Hope this helps.
Oz.
