[Serusers] ser, pstn gateways
by Jev 27 Jun '03

27 Jun '03

Hello all, Im using ser, with esteras softphone, and a couple of cisco ata186's. I have to say I really like ser, as it is small fast, and reliable without being over complicated. I would like to know what other ser users and developers use for pstn gateways? I have a openline4 card from voictronix, but there is no software support for sip (When I bought it I thought I would use h.323). I have looked at cisco's pstn gateway modules, but was turned off them because of price, and lack of clear straight forward information to name but two reasons. Ideally what I would like to have is a solution that would support at least 4 pstn lines (expandable to maybe 8), that would run on FreeBSD (or at worst linux), works well with sip & ser, with high quality audio, and minimal delays when dialing in out. TIA, -Emil

[Serusers] XJAB problem: infinite forking
by Peter Kostik 20 Jun '03

20 Jun '03

Hello everyone, I am playing around with the new CVS ser 0.8.11pre28 downloaded couple days ago. I am attaching my config script and also the output of syslog with errors. Afer I start ser it starts forking new processes until it crashes the box (fills up the memory). The script is little advanced, uses jabber,pa,msilo... Thanks for your help. You are doing great job. Can't wait till next release.

[Serusers] Re: First tests with nathelper
by Maxim Sobolev 07 Jun '03

07 Jun '03

I've just committed into the cvs the autopinging feature useful to keep NAT bindings alive. If possible, please test and let me know then. Basically, everything you need to do is to recompile/reinstall ser and all modules and add the following into your config: modparam("nathelper", "natping_interval", N) Where N is some non-zero interval in seconds (usually 15-30 should be OK). Thanks! -Maxim On Tue, Apr 29, 2003 at 09:38:44PM +0100, jaime(a)umtstrial.co.uk wrote: > Hello Maxim, > > I have been trying your module on one server with a customised > configuration, very similar to the default one in nathelper.cfg.

[Serusers] iptel.org SIP applications at VoN London (booth #4)
by Andy Blen 31 May '03

31 May '03

As speaker and exhibitor at the event, iptel.org is glad to invite you to VoN London (http://www.pulver.com/europe2003/) We will be presenting our application architecture for integration of SIP telephony with legacy networks and Internet services. In the exhibition, we are located in the booth #4 (nic.at) as a part of a world-wide ENUM trial which leverages our SIP Express Router (SER) (http://www.iptel.org/ser/) We will be demonstrating ENUM interoperability and our SIP applications based on the latest SER version with numerous new features (media component, ENUM support, DDM, presence agent, NAT traversal, web applications, etc.) On the 9th, iptel.org founder, Jiri Kuthan, will be holding a SIP tutorial (9am-6pm). On the 10th, he will participate in an "Open Source Voice" session (2:15-3:30pm) and share our deployment experience with audience. See you in London. If you need to arrange a time-slot with us, drop us an e-mail. Andy Blen

Hi everyone, What's happening to the function (In the latest CVS version of Ser)?: int is_user_in(struct sip_msg* msg, char* hf, char* group); When I use this function in the config file it returns an error. Did it change is name? Did it simply desapear? What coud it be missing here? Best Regards, Toni

[Serusers] forward to PSTN
by Andrzej Radke 30 May '03

30 May '03

Hello again ;) I'd like forward all numerical URI to my PSTN gateway if (uri=~"^sip:[0-9]*@gda.pl") { forward(10.10.10.1, 5060); }; But if I haven't numerical user in my contact i.e <sip:2411@10.10.10.1>;q=1.00;expires=1073143945 it doesn't works. This statement ( if (uri......) is unnecesary :( when I will add new permament contact for numerical URI. Do I all my numbers write statically to contact ???? What can I do when I have their a hundreds ?? Maybe should I add some config peer for my PSTN Gateway (C2600) ?? Greetings Andrzej Radke

[Serusers] Problems with locking in timer routine
by Maxim Sobolev 28 May '03

28 May '03

Hi folks, I am having problems with locking in timer routine (ser 0.8.10), particularly with the my recent addition to the nathelper - udp pinger. This piece of code is being invoked periodically by the timer, retrieves list of all currently registered contacts and sends short udp message to each of them. Obviously, routine which retrieves all contacts locks each domain before accessing it, but apparently it doesn't work as expected.
