Sangoma talk high availability

i have advanced recovery, how do i setup sangoma talk to take advantage of the backup server i have a ton of users that are outside of the office using sangoma and it would be nice if my primary server going down for any reason that the backup takes over…

is there a setup guide that includes networking setup for two servers separated physically but they do have a site to site VPN

the current idea is to buy a failover/load balancing service from cloudflare that ill point everything to but im not sure if thats a good option and i cant find anyone online talking about how to get thsee all setup to work as a high availability failover.

Have you considered dynamic DNS activation via custom script in the AR post switchover hook https://sangomakb.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/PG/pages/35783290/Advanced+Recovery#Post-Switchover-Hook ?

Or SRV records are your friend. In the advanced recovery setups I have done I just have them setup two FQDNs (one for each system) and a proper SRV record. When primary fails to respond the devices move over to the secondary.

Works with DDNS since you point the SRV records to the DDNS domains.
