Re: [sr-dev] new child module for kamailio, is call "lre"

Hello Everyone, In the middle of developing hiops module, another child module has grown up. I've been developing another module for Kamailio, I called this "lre". It means light-rtp-engine. The concept of this module is using the capability of linux-Kernel packet forwarding to forward RTP packets between both parties in a session call. As far as we know, this new way has some advantage in large VoIP networks that are using Kamailio as Proxy or SBC. Regardless of transcoding, it could be done by other servers, By using this module, Kamailio could handle a lot of concurrent calls with RTP. For example in my test-bed scenario, with 2 core of CPU, Kamailio could handle more than 1000 concurrent calls, with no issue like one-way audio or etc. The consumption of resources was incredible. Although I countn't finish the test-bed scenario, because the resources of SIPP servers, that make the calls, were run out. When kamailio starts, this module tries to connect to daemon project. The daemon project could be running on the same server with kamailio or on another server. The connection between two processes is TCP/IP Socket. I have to use libnfnetlink library to control Linux-kernel forwarding on the server. This library is the low-level library for netfilter related kernel/userspace communication. Some configuration in kamailio cfg is like below: #!ifdef WITH_LRE modparam("lre", "lre_sock", "tcp:192.168.122.108:8080") modparam("lre", "start_port", 10000) modparam("lre", "end_port", 30000) #!endif In some parts of my code, I need some guides to optimize performance of

The module will be published soon on GitHub, but for some reason I need to remove my old pull-request of hiops module.I will publish it again. -- --Mojtaba Esfandiari.S
