Re: [Voip.ms] Failover options when server down said by obiliving:look for the section heading Local DNS Records, and enter a record like this: Neat trick; thanks! Will that syntax use Tampa and Chicago in a priority fashion, or do you need to specify priority and weight?
Another way to do it is with the Trunk Groups feature. You can also register to two PoPs at once, using SP1 and SP2.
If you use the API to switch your DID's PoP, you wouldn't necessarily need to route calls any differently, and thus you wouldn't have to add an additional point of failure. An easier (API not required) way to accomplish geographic DID failover is with Anveo.

Yes, the full syntax allows all the goodies: priority, port, weight, .. Refer to the OBi device admin guide for detail.
To achieve failover behavior, you also need to enable X_ProxyServerRedundancy (second registration is optional). |

Do ALL of the OBI models let you do this ?
This functionality might be one of the stronger reasons I have heard for getting an OBI. 
(That is, for those of us who already have some other ATA.)

(2) That they already HAVE !
