Re: Alternate gatekeepers and neighbors question

[Jan Willamowius <jan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Andras,

there can be multiple neighbors serving the same prefix.
If you upstream gatekeeper is neighbored to both alternates (with the
same SendPrefix, in GnuGk terms), it will send an LRQ to both of them
asking who is able to route the call. The alternate who currently has
the endpoint registration is going to respond LCF and will get the call.

There won't be ARQs between neighbors.

Regards,
Jan
