[cisco-voip] CUBE High Availability Configuration Question

[Steve Siltman]

In a CUBE HA configuration, would it be wise to use a different local router for DSPFarm Profiles?  I would like to know what others are doing.  It looks like I need a loopback address on each of the CUBEs so that Call Manager can talk to them directly without using the virtual ip interface.  Otherwise the SCCP Media Resources will only register with Call Manager on the active side.  I'm going to test this but was wondering if the calls will fail over successfully between the CUBEs if using an MTP from another local router?  

Also wondering if putting CFB's on the CUBEs using loopbacks is possible.  Knowing that conference calls will drop during a cube failure.

My problem is that I don't have extra hardware DSP's on other routers but can find a router for software mtp profiles.  Anyone else playing with this?

Thanks,

Steve
