<br>Lets say you have a cluster of, say, 10 Asterisk servers. After doing a local lookup to see if a number is available locally, in order to find out if the number is available on one of the other 9 servers, this peer has to query all 9 remaining peers.

Either way though, all 9 get queried unless the answer was cached. Caching is tricky with registrations as you don't want to cache a registration which hasn't been renewed.

To terminate a call, a peer would only have to query the DUNDi servers, not every other peer. After looking at the config files, I can't imagine how this could work, or if it's even possible with DUNDi.
</blockquote><div><br>Yes, it is possible to push peer information as well as pull it. You
could also, as you say, limit the number of registration servers (i.e.
servers doing both the registration and DUNDi) and then only query to
them. I'm sure the hybrid model you suggest would work as well although
it'd need testing to see whether you got more performance out of
splitting the DUNDI and registration roles or just adding more
dual-purpose machines.<br>
