Abstract: A method includes detecting a failure condition relating to a first distributed mobile architecture (dMA) gateway (dMAG) at a dMAG management system. The dMAG management system is in communication with at least the first dMAG, a second dMAG, and dMA nodes. The method also includes determining that the first dMAG is offline based on the failure condition, selecting the second dMAG, sending a first notification from the dMAG management system to the second dMAG, and sending a second notification from the dMAG management system to an external system. The external system is configured to connect calls to a mobile station via the first dMAG. The first notification instructs the second dMAG to take over operations from the first dMAG. The second notification indicates that the external system is to connect subsequent calls to the mobile station via the second dMAG.
