[Asterisk-Users] Clustering

[Douglas Garstang]

I think there's a difference between sharing extension info and sharing registration info. Just because an extension exists on a given Asterisk box, doesn't mean that the user is available (ie registered and known to Asterisk) at that IP address/port.

Would an internal DUNDi configuration help the asterisk servers share  
their extension info?  Or,  use e.164 with an internal DNS zone to  
lookup the routing information.  SIP phone logs into Asterisk 'A' and  
a script runs to update the e.164 DNS info pointing the DID to  
Asterisk 'A'
