Re: [SR-Users] How to check message queue (buffer) in Kamailio

Thanks very much. That is the correct answer. just for the record, one can loadmodule "exec" and then use something like: exec_avp("netstat -ul | grep ':sip' | awk '{print $$2}'","$avp(s:test)"); the value of the recv-q is then stored in $avp(s:test) and can be used anywhere Just a side question. I can call "exec_avp" inside my route{} block obviously. I understand that route{} block is entered anytime that there is a message for processing (correct me if wrong), but if, say, I want to check the value of recv-q every 100ms, where in the config script shall I call it and how shall I specify the calling frequency?
