[asterisk-users] load balance with 2 wan connections

[dave george]

We have another gateway in the USA that will send traffic to both IPs.  The
US gateway will load balance the traffic to both IPs.  

This is not used for phones.  It is used mainly for wholesale traffic.
Asterisk is being used as an SS7 gateway.

Each DSL limits us to about 16 calls.  We are thinking of combining DSL +
DSL + Cable ISP on the same box and have our USA box send traffic to all 3
IPS.

The biggest issue with any solution to use two different providers for
your IP service that will be used by your VOIP provider to deliver
calls to your Asterisk server, is that each internet service will have
a separate address. Therefore, for INBOUND calls, your VOIP provider
will have to do the load balancing. For outbound calls, it won't be
that hard as long as your provider allows you to send calls from both
IP addresses.
