[SR-Users] Install Kamailio in captive network

[Alex Balashov]

Hi Rahul,

That is quite interesting! Well, there’s no such document that I’m aware of, but it seems the process should be quite similar to installing over the Internet. 

If installing from source, you can install all necessary compilation dependencies (most likely!) from the distribution media that you are using in lieu of downloading packages over the Internet. Then, you have to have some way of getting a clone of the Kamailio Github repository, or a source tarball, onto this host of course, e.g. via USB drive or something. 

Another fruitful avenue may be to build a Docker image or some other “snapshot” (e.g. a VM snapshot) on an “unprotected” - that is, Internet-connected — host and just transport that onto the non-Internet host.

I am not sure if binary packages (RPMs, debs) are the easiest option in this case because you would have to scrupulously attend to dependency chains which an Internet-connected package manager normally takes care of for you without much involvement on your part.
