Rules for working with Failover groups

Last Updated : Jan 09, 2017 |

Use the following best practices while working with Failover groups:

  • Refresh the page before any further operations for Failover groups, such as add new failover group, edit failover groups, and managing peers.

  • Do not add two SIP entities as primary or secondary with different IP address families as part of a single failover group.

  • In a failover group if one Session Manager has IP address family set to Both, all related entity links must be established with the IP address family of another Session Manager instance's SIP entity.

  • You cannot add two Session Managers with different IP address families as primary and secondary SM in single failover group.

  • Existing rules with different combinations of IP address families also apply while creating entity links between SIP entities which are part of failover groups.
