FIGURE 6 Single TCP connection for each SIP request
Client side: Connection reuse with Mega Proxy client
Figure 7 shows several SIP requests being initiated by a Mega Proxy client. The Mega Proxy uses a
single TCP connection to send all these requests. Each of these requests is identified using a
unique SIP Call-ID. The ServerIron ADX separates these requests and load balances them among
different back-end proxy servers.
