[asterisk-ss7] chan_ss7 signalling across multiple servers

[Antoine Megalla]

Thank you Anders,

It seems like it is working now.
Although I could not test with the full 8 E1s, but I tested on 2 E1s, one in each server and it is working.

When I test with the 8 E1s I will report back.

Thank you and best regards,

Antoine Megalla.

The config spec looks correct.

You will not need a [cluster] section when you use mtp3d to transport 
signaling for multiple servers.

You can also configure a cluster using the [cluster] section, and then not use 
mtp3d. There is a template ss7.conf for that in the source distribution.

The method of configuring clusters using the [cluster] section is the old 
approach. The newer approach of using mtp3d was introduced as a step towards 
supporting SIGTRAN, and for support of sharing transport for other protocols 
like GSM MAP and INAP.

Best regards,
