Have you looked at the Path implementation in the experimental CVS module?
It should be possible to use for that purpose. As stated earlier on this
list, it's on my to-do list to set up a test implementation with at least
two registrars using that module, but...
I'm not sure I understand the idea of using a SER pair as a session
border controller. Also, using carp/vrrp, do you plan an active-passive
setup?
