I found that chan_ss7 has some clustering support starting from version 0.8. This is the feature as mentioned in the read me file "Supports multiple hosts (cluster) configuration with load sharing and failover". Which is exactly what I need. Has anyone tested this configuration. What I understood from the configuration templates included with the source code that the interconnect will not only be used for keep alive "heart beats" it will also carry the signaling between the nodes which means that the signaling might terminate on one host and be used on an other node passing through the interconnect which is the perfect solution to my problem.
