[cisco-voip] Server-groups and failover...

[Pawlowski, Adam]

I think I had to make some adjustments to our timers as well to get this to work before network timeout or similar:

sip-ua
retry invite 2
timers trying 100
!

I know I also goofed this up between dial peer group and server group, one of the two will retry within the group, the other sure doesn’t.

I pasted the wrong part of the script (to manually change it)...

Here is the actual config:



voice class server-group 1
 ipv4 172.31.120.43
 ipv4 172.31.125.43 preference 2
 description Verizon SIP

First off, I'm wondering why it says "no ipv4" in front of your two addresses.  That might be your problem right there.

Secondly, I'd recommend putting an explicit preference on your entries, it's just better for everyone, and you don't get a credit back from Cisco for saving on a few ascii characters by implicitly using the default.  Plus, if the default is 0, which it is, then your next preference should be technically 1.  But then having nothing and 1 seems silly, because if pref 1 is actually pref 2, then well, might as well call them pref nothing and pref 8.  I digress.

You might not have failed over, because you might not have provided the system with the correction conditions to failover...E.g., you didn't wait long enough.

No seriously, by default SIP failover occurs after 30 seconds.  Unless, did you lower the retry count under sip-ua?  Or did you enable SIP options?  If you enabled SIP options, have your confirmed that it's turned on correctly?

Can you share the output of the following commands:

show run | section sip-ua|sip.options-keepalive

show dial-peer voice summary

Feel free to redact what you need to, in terms of IPs or usernames/passwords.  I am only looking for the features and settings for retries and keepalives.

Using session server groups on outbound dial-peers and it does not appear to be failing over:


voice class server-group 1
 no ipv4 172.31.125.43  preference 2
 no ipv4 172.31.120.43
 description Verizon SIP

We had the 172.31.20.43 go down (no response to invites) and we did NOT failover to the second (.125.43)...

What is needed to force a failover to the next configured SBC?
