Hmmm,<br><br>
IMHO this is a fundamental SIP architecture issue.<br><br>
To meet my understanding of distribution, this would required a proxy
function before the call "answer()" on the
Asterisk. If , in an ideal world, this proxy function were to
be in the path before answer(), the proxy would need added intelligence
to examine the INVITE and deduce from it's content the need for IVR or
VoiceMail. This is an Active Call Director functionality. IMHO,
this well within the capabilities of several SIP proxy packages available
today.<br><br>
Once answered, the Asterisk will remain in the call path. If
that is ok in your need for distribution, you can push the call onward
via any Asterisk dialplan extension to be serviced by a whole farm of
other Asterisks for specific chores. <br><br>

<blockquote type=cite class=cite cite=""><font size=2>Does anybody know
how to off-load an Asterisk Box so that to distribute its functions like
IVR and VoiceMail or its PTSN gateway function into different servers? in
this case , will the installation of Asterisk on each server differe and
how these different servers will interact as a single logical -vs
physical- server? thx alot <br>
