What in your opinion is the best failover methodology with PIAF?
Here's what I've come up with. Server on Wable, another server on RentPBX. They're both setup identical - with freepbx backup /restore from master to backup server. Once a day seems fine for my purposes, but if you wanted more frequent, I guess you could. Then I signed up for an account with DNS Made Easy with failover. I set the primary and secondary with a TTL of 60 (do I need to do that?) - and then set the failover checking to HIGH (should find it within 2 minutes I believe). Then on the sip device, set the DNS to fixed of DNSmadeeasy primary and secondary DNS. And of course set the SIP device to register every 60 seconds. I think this should give you a semi high-availability setup.
The other option that I was considering is to allow the SIP device to have a SIP server 1, and SIP server 2. But I rather think my first listed methodology is cleaner giving one DNS name such as mypbxserver.mydomain.com
Agree / Disagree ??
