Jan,
how do you get SIP dumps? Do you mean log files from
/var/log/messages ?
no. He means sip protocol traces. There are several ways to get them.
You can use
- ngrep (works on the unix server)
- tcpdump (unix + windows)
- ethereal (unix + windows)
to grab the sip packets from the network interface. If you have installed
"ngrep" you can just do a:
ngrep -d eth0 src port 5060 or dst port 5060
better, redirect all to a file for futher investigation:
ngrep -d eth0 src port 5060 or dst port 5060 > /tmp/siplog &
in case youre sip port (on the server) is 5060 and youre network interface
is "eth0".
In addition you can install the "xlite" softfone from
xten.com. It has a
debug option which will display all sip messages in a window. This is very
convenient for debugging from notebook at a customer site etc.
best regards,
