Sameer,

Kamailio is not a replacement for Asterisk. We, and many others on this list, use Kamilio+Asterisk+AGI to accomplish what we want.

Sameer,

I suppose the Kamailio facility most analogical to your current setup would be the Perl module:

http://www.kamailio.org/docs/modules/3.1.x/modules_k/perl.html

Although, you should beware that no call control can be delegated to such a script, just some simple logic.

This doesn't mean that a Perl script is necessarily the best way to do what you want, especially because its execution will block one of Kamailio's relatively few SIP worker threads until it returns.  You may want to consider learning the route script API more in-depth and writing your billing logic in the route script, or deputising it into a database-side stored procedure.

Thanks,

Hi all

I am looking forward to move from asterisk to kamailio, So may be asking some unusual questions

My current system is working in such a way that

Whenever a call arrives at asterisk i call perl script by AGI and then in that perl script i check customer status, billing, extension routing, updating cdr to my database and many more other operations.

The billing which i am doing is different than the one in siremes and i dont want to go for GUI as well

So I am looking for a solution similar to AGi.

Please direct me to the right path.

thanks

Sameer.

In some cases, it can be, depending on what you're doing with Asterisk to begin with. Pure call routing without any of the interactivity that Asterisk introduces is a valid application for a solitary Kamailio setup. But you're right, many real-world call transit applications can't get by on Kamailio alone.

It is possible to only setup Kamailio to do far end nat-traversal without proxying RTP. So, depending on the 'world' in question a B2BUA / Asterisk might not be absolutely required.

I have a simple configuration on my blog: http://bit.ly/f8X9SN
