[asterisk-users] Clustering Meetme over multiple boxes?
Has anyone here done any work on clustering Meetme conferences over multiple Asterisk boxes? The scenario I am thinking of is where there are two or more boxes connected to a set of PRIs that all answer to the same PSTN number, and where it's not possible to know in advance on which box a call would arrive. So it would be possible to have some calls on one box and some on another, that should all be conferenced together, by somehow linking matching Meetme conferences on both/all boxes. Particular complications I can envisage are the handling of marked users (A, w and x options), call recording (r option), and MeetmeAdmin operations such as mute all and unmute all.

[asterisk-users] Clustering Meetme over multiple boxes?
Hello, We have done this using IAX trunks between Asterisk servers to connect a PRI line on server A with a meetme room on server B. We have had hundreds of participants in meetme rooms across a dozen Asterisk servers using this method. Not knowing your setup I'm not sure if this would work easily for you, but this is a somewhat-easy, scalable method for expanding meetme capacity.
