Hello, advertise_address is an old global parameter that is only for Via. Try to use the advertise attribute for listen parameter -- see core cookbook for more details.

Primary Proxy is working in the middle of 2 SBCs and all nodes are within the same network so NATing is NOT involved ;secondary proxy is accessible through VPN. It's pretty simple configuration, proxy is just adding and removing headers in the middle. So if I stop the kamailio service on primary IP , SBCs blacklist that and start sending new invites to secondary IP. That's all good. But if I reproduce this failover during a connected session , SBCs do not send mid-dialog requests/responses to failover IP. I can see they still try to send messages to primary SBC which obviously end up with timeout. I understand the most natural solution is HA with Virual IP but it's not possible because secondary IP is accessible through VPN. I tried to use DNS SRV record with priorities but that also does not work with mid-dialog messages, I also have tried to change record-route/via header to fqdn through advertise_address. Its not changing record-route but via only but I am still not getting expected results. Any guidance of possible solution(s) here will be appreciated. -- Muhammad Danish Moosa " The core of mans' spirit comes from new experiences.
