You can create multiple channel groups as needed and select a different IP Network Elements for each. As long as the Gateway Host Name field in the External Gateway of the IP Network Element selected is of the format _<service>._<protocol>.<Domainname> this channel group will initiate a DNS lookup with that format. For Example: A DNS Query formatted as _sip._udp.jsmith.dialogic.com would be sent to the DNS server if Channel Group named DNS_Config from above is being used.

When receiving multiple responses in the SRV records in the DNS response, the weight and priority fields are accessed for each SRV record. From here the Random Number Method is used to select the priority of which SIP server to send call to first.
IMG will store a maximum of 5 SRV record results per query.
The port number received in the SRV record will be provided to sip server. The SRV record will override any port numbers configured on each gateway.
The SRV target is to be used during SIP PDU encoding (Protocol Data Unit Logging), not the service name.
SIP is to handle a failure to resolve a service query in the same way as an existing query. A 480 response will be returned to the initiating gateway
CDR's are not affected by this feature. The resolved hostname will be used in the CDR record.
If an outbound proxy is enabled for an external gateway that uses a Service Name, the SRV query is resolved prior to determining the proxy parameters during a call. A SRV query will execute only on an external gateway and will not be executed on an outbound proxy hostname.
If user wants to assign an SRV record name to another IMG the user must create an external gateway equivalent to the IMG and select it from drop down list in the external network element object created under the SIP channel group.
