I'm trying to implement a dual Asterisk Box setup where our carrier will be delivering SIP traffic to one of 2 units. The idea is that to have a high uptime by handling traffic on box A while box B is being upgraded, then box B takes over the traffic, allowing box A to be upgraded. The question is how can we drive Asterisk to make this happen? I need some primitives like "stop accepting calls" and "start accepting calls". One way (I guess) is to have a dial plan that just responds to any INVITE with a 3xx message and switch that in with a file rename and a console reload operation. Another way would involve the use of the OPTIONS feature of SIP, but I can't see where this is configured. Any ideas or experience on this matter? Alex
It's beginning to look as though Asterisk can't send 302 responses.
