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

[AliReza Khoshgoftar Monfared]

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for the reply.
I was thinking about it as a signal for the Kamailio server being
overloaded (i.e. spikes in the load)
Are there other options built in Kamailio that can be monitored to see when
the server/proxy is overloaded? I think something like the rate of incoming
messages may also be helpful?


Best,
Alireza
