Abstract
Disclosed are methods, systems, and computer program products for distributed resource allocation between media gateways (MGs) in a cluster of MGs. According to one method, available resources provided by each MG in a cluster of MGs controlled by a media gateway controller (MGC) are communicated between the MGs in the cluster. At the media gateways, resources required for a call are identified, rules are applied to select resources for the call from the available resources, and the selected resources are allocated to process the call.
