Thanks for your note, Alex, but asking for a reasonable admin is hardly
presumptuous; indeed saying that it is presumptuous is very questionable. I
have had to do that myself having designed telco architecture and products
in painful (SW) detail for over a decade now, and I have seen boxes far
more complex and less complex all of which need OAM (invariably GUI based)
which the customer won't touch without. We all have different ways by which
we use products...
That said, you are saying "dammit, spend some time with this thing."
Point taken.
Your other comment re: turn-key LB is something I will investigate. Thanks
for your time though.

I think you need to radically readjust your

You'll want to start with the 'dispatcher' module, which provides the load
distribution part, and go from there. There are plenty of examples of how
to use it online, including the dispatcher module docs themselves:
http://www.kamailio.org/docs/modules/4.4.x/modules/dispatcher.html#dispatch…
Also, this is a rather broad question that demands a lot from your
audience, and certainly cannot be accommodated in a "quick start" guide:
Please also let me know if I should have to
change my Asterisk PBX
config
The answer there is "know how to administer Asterisk", and there are no
shortcuts around that.
Speaking of shortcuts: Kamailio is a fairly low-level tool designed for
situations in which fine-grained message-level control is needed over SIP
scenarios. When you say "it should be possible to get this setup by just
running a script or GUI", you are speaking from a very presumptuous
position.
Unless you're willing to put in the time and learn how to use all the
pieces you've chosen to use, it sounds like you may be best served by a
turn-key load balancer product or appliance of some sort, which would allow
you point-and-click your way to happiness--at the expense of the
integration paths you're after (RealTime et al).
