Re: [SR-Users] Kamailio 1.5.4 and beyond - mhomed issue under Linux

by Sean O'Donnell

Hi all, I checked the GIT repository and noticed that there was a patch in forward.c for this issue. Looks like it was done 11/4/2010. Two questions: 1) Is there any reason that patch didn't make it into Kamailio 3.1.2 ? 2) Any reason I shouldn't apply that patck to my 1.5.4 release? Thanks, Sean O'Donnell Senior Engineer uReach Technologies, Inc. ---- On Thu, 10 Feb 2011, Sean O'Donnell (skodonnell(a)ureach.com) wrote: Hi all, I just started deploying Kamailio release 1.5.4, and I think there's an issue with how Kamailio identifies an outgoing interface when mhomed is enabled under Linux.

Usually when I see the wrong source IP in a UDP packet, it's an issue with how routes are set up on the host.

After the source address was determined, the temp socket was closed closed. As of 1.5.4, this was modified to reuse the temporary socket and just re-invoking connect() with a new destination address. The problem with the enhancement is that Linux (again, at least in the 2.6 kernels I'm using) doesn't seem to rebind a new source address to the socket when connect() is called more than once on a UDP socket. Instead, it keeps the original one, and thus the wrong interface is assumed. I wrote a small program to confirm this - basically creates a UDP socket, calls connect()/getsockname() multiple times using different destination addresses. I ran it on several 2.6 kernels, including Centos4.x and Centos5. The result was always that the source address of the socket wasn't changed after the first connect(), regardless of the destination address. The only way I could get it work as required was to first do a connect() using a zero'd out AF_UNSPEC address before doing the connect() to the remote address. I also ran it on Solaris and it worked. Go figure. I've downloaded the latest stable release (3.1.2) but I think the issue is still there, and I don't see anything in the user groups that addresses this. Any help would be appreciated.

pdb module timeouts

by Thomas Baumann

Hello, I am using the PDB module and server components for number portability. 2 instances of PDB Server runs on (10.12.19.51/10001/10002), Kamailio on (10.12.19.21). With a small amount of traffic (-cmax 150 -cps 10 -callduration 3), where are timeouts: WARNING: pdb [pdb.c:260]: exceeded timeout while waiting for response. One requested number was 307111094, where the module prints out a timeout. The funny part is, that I can see the responses at least arriving at the 10.12.19.21 interface on time. Request send: 0,200855 s Answer received: 0,201027 s That are 0,172 ms and far away from a timeout. What could be the reason ? regards, Thomas ps. A small change on the server part was done: handle 4 digit carrier codes. level3_logs: Feb 9 17:19:42 node2 /openser/sbin/kamailio[21200]: DEBUG: pdb [pdb.c:201]: querying '307111094'... Feb 9 17:19:42 node2 /openser/sbin/kamailio[21200]: WARNING: pdb [pdb.c:260]: exceeded timeout while waiting for response. ___________________________________________________________ Schon gehört?

Change transport=tls within Contact Header

by Bernhard Suttner

Hi, is there a function to change the transport field within the Contact Header? t_relay does relay it to the UDP port of the PBX but the transport within the Contact Header is still set to TLS. Later, the PBX does try to establish a TLS connection. The idea is now, that kamailio does set the transport of the Contact Header to UDP. Another possible way would to be, that I use the re.subst method but maybe there is a special function for that. Thanks in advance. Best regards, Bernhard

NAT, TLS and location table

by Bernhard Suttner

Hi, I am using TLS and recognize the following problem: The TLS connection are build up successfully but the natping (natping_interval = 10) does not send small dummy packets to the phones. The phones are behind a firewall with NAT. Registered phones with NAT but UDP do work correctly. They are getting the natping every 10 seconds. After 120 seconds (should be the tcp_connection_timeout) kamailio does send a FIN to the TLS phone to close the TLS connection. Should I increase the tcp_connection_timeout to a value bigger than the registration timeout? I thought I do not need that, because of the natping_interval. Is it maybe better to use a SIP-Options Ping instead of the small dummy packets? I would prefer the dummy packets because they are much smaller. BTW: Kamailio 3.1.1 and snom360 with latest v8 firmware. Thanks in advance! Best regards, Bernhard

handle_new_connect ... Too many open files

by Efelin Novak

Hi, today during two hours kamailio made 2G of a syslog messages. This message was repeated for 10 000 000 times. /sbin/kamailio[24272]: ERROR: <core> [tcp_main.c:3959]: WARNING: handle_new_connect: error while accepting connection(24): Too many open files It was preceded by following error. /sbin/kamailio[24265]: ERROR: <core> [tcp_read.c:269]: error reading: Connection reset by peer (104) /sbin/kamailio[24265]: ERROR: <core> [tcp_read.c:882]: ERROR: tcp_read_req: error reading Finally it stopped without any given reason. I'm using kamailio 3.1.0 (i386/linux) 1e204f, callcontrol 2.0.11 and clustered mysql. Was this some kind of attack, bug, error, misconfiguration or what? Thank for answer, Efelin

TLS Support

by Bernhard Suttner

Hi, how could I compile the TLS module and only the TLS module - not the other sources. BTW: The documentation within the http://www.kamailio.org/docs/tls.html is not up-to-date. Thanks in advance. Best regards, Bernhard

Kamailio 1.5.4 and beyond - mhomed issue under Linux

by Sean O'Donnell

Hi all, I just started deploying Kamailio release 1.5.4, and I think there's an issue with how Kamailio identifies an outgoing interface when mhomed is enabled under Linux. I use Kamailio as a call distributor/proxy between a soft-switch/SBC and a voicemail platform.
