[OpenSIPS-Users] Question about mediaproxy relay preference

[Adrian Georgescu]

Yes, it blows away the DNS SRV concept. The new model where media  
relays automatically connect to one or more dispatchers using TLS is  
much more secure and has more self-organizing properties then  
statically configured DNS that can hold a limited amount of records.  
Still you have full control to promote a chosen relay on top of the  
list if you want to. You just need to work out a bit your  
configuration for achieving this.
