Example of Round Robin Load Balancing

In the Sonus SBC 1000/2000 to Lync direction call scenarios in this setup, Sonus SBC 1000/2000 load balances outbound calls among the multiple IP addresses to which the FQDN resolves. The following screenshot depicts the multiple calls received by the Sonus SBC 1000/2000 and how they are sent to different Front End Servers in a round robin fashion.

Info

the load balancing also works if the multiple IP addresses are configured in same SIP Server Table instead of a FQDN. In other words, if IP addresses of 134.56.227.43, 134.56.227.41, and 134.56.227.44 are listed in the server table instead of cspool.mylync.com, the load balancing still occurs in the outbound SIP Signaling Groups that use this server table.
