[OpenSER-Users] [RFC] - siptrace change

Hello,

from my point of view, you can disable this feature.

I use the siptrace module "only" for supporting lawful interception on
signalling level. There I think I can do without ACKs since ACKs are not
containing too much usefull informations.

Further, debugging of sipflows is done with a separate tool.

regards
Helmut

| Hi,

| I would like to get your opinion/comments on some siptrace issue.
|
| In 1.3, a new capability was added in siptrace - to trace the ACK
| resulted from sending stateless replies.
|
| The problem I discovered with this is that it cannot be controlled by
| selecting the messages or transactions to be be traced. Usually you use
| siptrace to trace only certain transactions / messages - tracing all
| traffic is usually not a realistic option.
|
| So, with the stateless ACK, the siptrace module cannot apply the
| selection from script and trace them all, with no filtering at all. So,
| if you want to trace a traffic for a single user, all ACK going through
| the platform will be traced.
|
| This reduces the usability of the module and you get a lot of garbage
| tracing.
|
| My suggestion will be to disable stateless ACK tracing until a way to
| control/filter it is found. I'm asking this considering the upcoming
| 1.3.2 release from tomorrow.
|
| Regards,
| Bogdan
