Taming Flippant Fluctuations in your VoIP Network

There’s no chatty preamble today, because I’ve got a puzzle for you. Are you ready? Let’s suppose that you want to build a nice redundant VoIP network, and so you deploy two Session Border Controllers in geo-diverse locations, along with a single Metaswitch CFS. These two SBCs have IP addresses 1.1.1.1 and 2.2.2.2 (because you… Continue Reading
