MLB SIP Load Balancer 1.2
he MLB SIP Load Balancer is used to load balance SIP services, to achieve performance scalability and high availability of the SIP services.
MLB is a fast SIP proxy application capable to handle millions of simultaneous calls and will provide traffic routing based on server load.
The SIP Load Balancers automatically detect when a server is unavailable using various methods such as ICMP ping, SIP signaling and/or API calls and also it is able to receive feedback from the destinations (if they are capable of). Load Balancing provides increased VoIP network availability and reduces the number of re-transmitted SIP INVITE's by routing traffic through healthy signaling paths.
SIP load balancing scales and optimizes a SIP infrastructure. SIP registration and SIP proxy traffic can be handled in separate service groups, whose servers can be monitored with separate application-layer SIP health checks for registration or non-registration traffic. Businesses choosing to implement a SIP load balancer will benefit from improved network performance and additional server security. These will provide higher scalability, as well as increased network availability and reliability. SIP traffic will be efficiently directed to appropriate servers in order to produce the most effective SIP traffic management system available. Without proper SIP load balancing abilities, organizations may encounter problems such as traffic bottlenecks, server downtime and the exposure of business-sensitive data to potentially malicious traffic such as DoS and DDoS attacks. Improving the way a business handles its SIP traffic will help increase even server processing distribution, which in turn will help guard against overloads and crashes.
The MLB SIP Load Balancer is capable to handle an enourmous traffic on a legacy x86 hardware, SIP signaling at gigabit speed, more then 100 000 packets per second.
