Re: [SR-Users] problem with dispatcher load balancing

Hi, Figured this out. Seems I had made a mistake in the names of AVPs. Changed the AVP names as the exact names used in the example contained in dispatcher doc. Dispatcher started to work, I can see even distribution of loads to 2 Asterisk servers. Will verify if maxload is being enforced or not, not really an issue even if it is not enforced.

All the calls are sent to one Asterisk (the last one in the dispatcher list), the maxload setting in dispatcher table is ignored. We use db dispatcher table instead of dispatcher list file, and the kamailio.cfg is the same as included in the previous email in this thread. Hope I didn't make any mistake in kamailio.cfg.
