Can anyone give me a realistic test case for measuring SER performance? I've
been using sipsak to stress my SER server but am not able to interpret the
result.
Here are some sipsak were run:
[siptest@sipuat siptest]$ sipsak -U -I -e 10000 -s sip:40@mysip.test -r 5060
-n 800 -z -vv
[siptest@sipuat siptest]$ sipsak -U -I -e 50000 -s sip:30@mysip.test -r 5060
-n 2 -z -vv
[siptest@sipuat siptest]$ sipsak -U -I -e 10000 -s sip:40@mysip.test -r 5060
-n 150 -z -vv
[siptest@sipuat siptest]$ sipsak -U -I -e 10000 -s sip:40@mysip.test -r 5060
-n 50 -z -vv
One of the result as follow:
All usrloc tests completed successful.
received last message 109125.023 ms after first request (test duration).
biggest delay between request and response was 46082.422 ms
10 retransmission(s) received from server.
9 time(s) the timeout of 5000 ms exceeded and request was retransmitted.
I guess a delay of 46s (46082.422ms) is definitely not acceptable. What
should I set for -n to be comparable to real world traffic.
And what kind of result should I expect.
Side issue:
During my stress test, I experience the same problem Andres reported last
Nov.
udp_rcv_loop:recvfrom:[11] Resource temporarily unavailable
After I modify some kernel (Fedora Core 1, Linux 2.4.22) parameters, the
problem seems to go away. Anyone happy to prove the case?

Is anybody here experienced with Asterisk server and what is you experience? What pluses and minuses for SIP from IPTEL and from Asterisk?
Thanks,

Greetings,
I'm a new SER user trying to set up a very basic SER configuration with a proxy server and two SIP clients. I'm running SER on RedHat Linux 7.3 and a pair of MSN 4.6 clients.
I have set up SER with MySQL and digest authentication support (see of of message for ser.cfg) and added a handful of normal users to the ser MySQL db using serctl.
The two clients can sign on and communicate with each other. However, the weirdness started after I added each client to the other's buddy list. Even though both users are online and could IM each other, only one of the users were shown as online on the other user's buddy list. The factor that determines which client is visible in a buddy list seems to be the order in which the users sign on.
Another issues is that a non-existent user can login. That is, a user that does not have any entry in the ser MySQL database can still login and communicate with other users online. How do you enforce authentication?
I'd also be happy to learn of any alternatives to MSN that run on either Windows of GNU/Linux.
Any help you can provide would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Chris B.
P.S. - I did search the serusers archive using Google and it seemed that a similar question had been brought up in the past, but I found no answer. My apologies if I was too hasty in my search of the archives.

for those who are not aware of our presence at VoN -- I will be there

Among other things, I will be introducing our latest achievement,
Application Agent, on Tuesday. (www.iptel.org/aa/) That's next
generation of our SIP servers which allows extremelly rapid service
programming. It is available under a commercial license.

Hi all,
I've configured a local SER on our network, and I met some difficulties with
multiple Contacts.
When UA1 changes IP address, and REGISTER in SER to announce his new IP,
both last and New Contacts are placed in Location table, with different
'expires' values. If UA2 receives last UA1 IP address, and REGISTER with it,
calling UA1 from UA3 when both Contact still available, makes UA2 ringing,
which cause some confusion.
To overcome about this, I'm searching for a way to force SER to delete an
"old Contact" when a Registration is done with same URI and different IP;
That way, only one Contact for one URI is available. I've tried to add
modparam("registrar", "append_branches", 0) in ser.cfg, but in this case,
Contact with lowest 'expires' parameter is called, and not Contact with
highest one, still causing confusion fo IP calls.
Could anyone tell me how to force a Contact to be deleted in SER location
table, in case of registration with new Contact?
Thanks for your support.
Regards.
Marc
Hi all,
I need some help with CVS and sipsak sources. I'm trying to update or just checkout the latest sipsak source tree. I've never used CVS before. I'm running it and building sipsak on a Fedora Core 1 box. I'm following the Berlios.org instructions:
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sipsak.berlios.de:/cvsroot/sipsak login
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sipsak.berlios.de:/cvsroot/sipsak co auth.c
I get the following error:
cvs server: cannot find module `auth.c' - ignored
cvs [checkout aborted]: cannot expand modules
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Paul
Hi John!
yes. ser can generate CDR by using the acc (accounting) module.
please send your emails also to the list.

phone on SER but i cannot use it to call another SIP phone on a different
server (domain). What do i have to do? Thanks
