Question about GK redundancy.

[Juan Gerardo Hernandez]

Hi all,

I just wanted to know which the best method for a Gatekeeper routing fail is over

For example I have 2 CUCM’s

• CUCM_viti_1
• CUCM_viti_2

Registered as an endpoint for our gatekeeper.

So, whenever a call try to establish a connection to an extension 0826*, I configure my GK with the following settings.

zone prefix gk2 0826* gw-priority 10 cucm_viti_1 cucm_viti_2

Meaning that if cucm_viti_1 is not available, it will failover to cucm_viti_2

BUT

What is the difference of using?

zone prefix gk2 0826* gw-priority 10 cucm_viti_1
zone prefix gk2 0826* gw-priority 9 cucm_viti_2

Please tell me an advise, in when should I use each scenario.

Regards.

The first scenario assigns the same priority to both cucm. hence calls will be distributed in a round roboin fashion. The second command makes CUCM_viti_1 as the primary cucm since it has the higer priority and only when this is down will calls be sent to the second cucm

Your explanation was useful.

I Imagined that so, like Media Resource Groups and Media Resource Lists. in CUCM
