[OpenSIPS-Users] [OpenSIPS-Devel] [RELEASES] Planing OpenSIPS 1.9.0 major release

[Duane Larson]

Ali,

Just to add to the scenarios when you don't use load balancer but want to
keep up with load.....

If you are load balancing to Asterisk servers but you don't use the
load_balance() function because you want an "attended transfer" or someone
is call for a "Parked Call".  You want to make sure the call goes to the
Asterisk server that has the current call for an Attended Transfer or the
call goes to the Asterisk server that has the parked call.
