Hello,
I haven't read the archive, but you probably talk about what I am
thinking of. IIRC, at that time Carsten tried to explain how it works,
but overall looked confused indeed. As a result, dispatcher module in
3.2.0 has a different system for gateway states.
There are three of them:
- active
- inactive
- disabled
The active and inactive states can be set also in probing mode, so then
there will be keepalives sent to gateways to detect when they become
inactive/active. The disabled state is to put a gateway out of order
completely.
Maybe you can give a try to 3.2.0 dispatcher, now that it is out as a
stable release, and see if it is more meaningful behavior.
Cheers,
Daniel

Hi All,
I'd like to clear something up with the diapatcher module and it's
probing parameters:
First things first:
./kamailio -V
version: kamailio 3.1.5 (i386/linux) 76fff5
flags: STATS: Off, USE_IPV6, USE_TCP, USE_TLS, TLS_HOOKS, USE_RAW_SOCKS,

DBG_QM_MALLOC, USE_FUTEX, FAST_LOCK-ADAPTIVE_WAIT, USE_DNS_CACHE,
USE_DNS_FAILOVER, USE_NAPTR, USE_DST_BLACKLIST, HAVE_RESOLV_RES
ADAPTIVE_WAIT_LOOPS=1024, MAX_RECV_BUFFER_SIZE 262144, MAX_LISTEN 16,

poll method support: poll, epoll_lt, epoll_et, sigio_rt, select.

I think I am suffering from the same confusion as Klaus in the following
archive message:
http://web.archiveorange.com/archive/v/jZFTG61DlcEr9LJbS8Gq
I have the following parameters set for the dispatcher module:
modparam("dispatcher", "ds_ping_interval", 10)
modparam("dispatcher", "ds_probing_threshhold", 1)
modparam("dispatcher", "ds_probing_mode", 0)
When I first start kamailio all gateways are active, no probing occurs.
If I then set a gateway inactive (ds_set_state i 1 sip:...), no probing
occurs.
If I then set same gateway active (ds_set_state a 1 sip:...), no probing
occurs.
If I mark same gateway as probing (ds_mark_dst("p") after 1 attempt as
specified in module parameter), then probing starts.
If I then set same gateway inactive (ds_set_state i 1 sip:...) probing
still occurs.
According to the docs if I set the state of a gateway to inactive then
no probing should occur. From my understanding of the docs, if I set
ds_probing_mode to 0 then only gateways marked as probing will be "pinged".
Can someone with more experienced than myself please clarify how this
method is supposed to work.
Thanks
