SIP Proxy Redundancy
In typical commercial IP Telephony deployments, all calls are established through a SIP proxy server.
An average SIP proxy server may handle tens of thousands of subscribers. It is important that a backup
server be available so that an active server can be temporarily switched out for maintenance. Linksys IP
phones support the use of backup SIP proxy servers so that service disruption should be nearly
eliminated.

A simple way to support proxy redundancy is to configure a SIP proxy server in the Linksys IP phone

proxy server whenever possible.
The dynamic nature of SIP message routing makes the use of a static list of proxy servers inadequate in
some scenarios. In deployments where user agents are served by different domains, for instance, it would
not be feasible to configure one static list of proxy servers per covered domain into every Linksys IP
phone. One solution to this situation is through the use of DNS SRV records. Linksys IP phones can be
instructed to contact a SIP proxy server in a domain named in SIP messages. The Linksys IP phone
consults the DNS server to get a list of hosts in the given domain that provides SIP services. If an entry
exists, the DNS server returns an SRV record that contains a list of SIP proxy servers for the domain,
with their host names, priority, listening ports, and so on. The Linksys IP phone tries to contact the list
of hosts in the order of their stated priority.
