Re: [Serusers] new release of admin guide available

by lgfausak＠august.net

Thank you for the reply. I guess what I'm asking is what does stateful do? Does it take control of all requests relating to the current call-id from that point on? So my may route logic does not need to think about ACKs and retransmissions? ---greg > >At 07:08 PM 12/9/2002, Greg Fausak wrote: >>Has this documentation always been available? >> >>This is definately making a difference for me! > >We just released this documentation update. > >Yes, forward is built-in, t_relay/t_relay_to is >part of tm modules. forward(<host>,<port>) or >t_relay_to("<host>", "<port>") sends a request >to the address in params. forward(uri:host, uri:port) >and t_relay() sends a request to the address in current >URI. > >The trade-offs between stateless forward and stateful >t_relay are described in >http://www.iptel.org/ser/doc/seruser-html/x740.html#AEN839 > >If you do not not, whether to go stateful or stateless, >you will be probably better if with stateful. > >Cheers, > >-Jiri > >-- >Jiri Kuthan http://iptel.org/~jiri/ > >_______________________________________________ >Serusers mailing list >serusers(a)lists.iptel.org >http://lists.iptel.org/mailman/listinfo/serusers >

Re: [Serusers] new release of admin guide available

by lgfausak＠august.net

Has this documentation always been available? This is definately making a difference for me! I am afraid this is all I needed to start asking some real stupid questions... I'll start with this, first, a few assertions: 'forward' is built in to the routing engine? forward(host, port) As I understand it, forward simply sends the message to the hostname and port I specify, statelessly. forward(uri:host, uri:port) This sends the message to the host and port as specified by the current uri, statelessly. 't_relay' is a module, not part of the main routing engine. t_relay_to(host, port) Send the message to host and port 'statefully'. t_relay() Send the message to the host and port as specified by the current uri, statefully. OK, now a question. These two sets of operations seem very similar on the surface. I think I understand 'statelessly', the message is simply fired off and all memory of the message is gone. I am trying to grasp 'stateful'. What exactly is different when using 't_relay()'? I am having a hard time coming to understand 'stateful' transactions. ---greg Greg Fausak August.Net Services, LLC > >http://www.iptel.org/ser/admin.html > >Comments very much appreciated. > >-Jiri > >-- >Jiri Kuthan http://iptel.org/~jiri/ > >_______________________________________________ >Serusers mailing list >serusers(a)lists.iptel.org >http://lists.iptel.org/mailman/listinfo/serusers >

RE: RE: [Serusers] SER/SERWeb Howto...

by Dan Austin

Are you running the script as root? Before upgrading MySQL I did use the grant command, and managed to get the correct permissions installed. I ran into other problems with the client libraries, so I did a complete upgrade. After upgrading the ser_mysql.sh script did everyting it should have and I did not need to make any changes. I'm also fairly new to MySQL, but from your error message, it looks like you are running the script from an account that does not have permissions inside the database. As root if you run mysql, does it prompt for a password? From your select statement, I would not expect it to. If it allows you to logon to the database, you can try to assign the default permissions manually.

[Serusers] What are aliases for?

by Dan Austin

My guess based on reading the developers and admin guides is that an account could be aliased to a DID number, or internal extension. In testing it doesn't seem to work that way. With two accounts, on a Cisco IP phone and the other on MSN client, calls can be placed based on the SIP account name, but not the alias. Thanks, Dan

Re: [Serusers] Softphone that has STUN or built-in NAT support?

I think kphone (Linux) has STUN support. I heard some rumours about SJPhone, but have never tried it out. Out of hard-phones, snom is probably a very cheap alternative right now, and it has STUN support too.

RE: [Serusers] SER/SERWeb Howto...

I don't have docbook, but I can look into it. One of my concerns about attempting to write this is that I'm still learning the process. Another is that I only have the one server running RedHat, so the steps will be oriented that way, at least to start. I will integrate you're suggestions and provide another update shortly. My last question/issue is about dependancies. When I started working with SER I already had MySQL install, version 3.23.36 I believe. I could not get the MySQL portion integration to work, and found that permissions were not correctly granted. After manually correcting the permissions, I had errors about the communications between SER and MySQL. I updated MySQL to the latest stable release and client programs, and the integration worked with no manual intervention. This prompts me to want to include a section about software that SER depends on, or can leverage, and identify the minimum revision known to work. For this section I would need feedback about what has worked for others, as it failed for me with MySQL 3.23.36 and worked with 3.23.56, but I am sure there is a version inbetween.

Documentation is one of our biggest issues right now and I think that a description (or howto) written by someone who is not involved in development of SER can better describe problems that real users have.

You can store them as plaintext passwords, which is easier to maintain for ser beginners. Or you can store HA1 strings. HA1 string is a hash that contains username, password and realm hashed using MD5. Advantage of this approach is that passwords are not stored in plaintext and can be seen easily. This is similar to to /etc/passwd in unix, the server doesn't know passwords, it can only use HA1 to verify responses. If you decide to to use plaintext passwords, uncomment the "calculate_ha1" parameter. If you decide to use HA1, make sure that HA1 strings contain correct realm (the default HA1 string for admin user which comes with ser contains iptel.org as the realm). If you change your realm, you must also change all HA1 strings. > Uncomment this line: modparam("auth", "password_column", > "password") Uncomment this line if you use "calculate_ha1" parameter. By default, ser looks into ha1 column for HA1 strings. If you use plaintext passwords, you must tell ser to look into password column for plaintext passwords, this is what this parameter is for. > Basic account manipulation can be performed with the serctl script, > located in /usr/local/sbin. > Once you get familiar with serctl command, it would be handy if you could write a description what this command can do and what it can be used for.

[Serusers] Re[4]: [Serhelp] third part session control

by Jiri Kuthan

[cc: changed to serusers, which is publicly archived] There is no B2BUA support in SER. You can try to use some existing B2BUA implementation. You can use SER along with B2BUA too -- they interact using SIP. You just need to set SIP routing accordingly to your scenario. You should be perhaps warned of some side-effect of use of the B2BUA technology. The root reason is B2BUAs break the end-to-end model, in which intelligence lives in end-devices. With B2BUA, you put a fair amount of work on a network entity. That breaks e2e security, degrades scalability and robustness -- B2BUA's failure affect all existing calls. -Jiri At 01:18 PM 12/4/2002, Igor Vasiliev wrote: >Hello, > > I've tryed to read B2BUA's doc that I could find. >But I did't properly understand how it should works with SER. >Should SER redirect any INVITE(e.t.c) request to B2BUA, >and after B2BUA'll try to establish connection with a calee >on behalf of B2BUA? > Or B2BUA should be stand alone programm working without >any SIP proxy server? > Then how could it find out callee location. > >Could anybody describe me shortly a interaction model >between caller B2BUA SER and callee. >Just general example. > >Thanks >Igor Vasiliev > > > > > > > > > > > > > > >_______________________________________________ >Serhelp mailing list >serhelp(a)lists.iptel.org >http://lists.iptel.org/mailman/listinfo/serhelp -- Jiri Kuthan http://iptel.org/~jiri/

[Serusers] SER/SERWeb Howto...

by Dan Austin

1st draft and just a bit rough. I'm also stuck with MS-Word for my editer at the moment, so there's some extra garbage in the file. Let me know if I'm on the right track, if there are sections that need more detail, less detail or elimination. I'm considering an addition section on client configuration, but I'm not sure how valuable that will be. (Cisco 79XX, MSN, any other clients I can get my hands on...) Dan

Don't worry -- all our developers are on the serusers list too.

The odd >part is that the phone does not seem to request the presence feature, so >I can not route calls to it. Hmmm -- we only have 7960s in our labs but they should be similar and they work. You need to set up registrar, user name and credentials to be able to register. >If I call test(a)199.254.167.202 the phone rings and the call can be completed. >If I call test(a)fitawi.com, I get an immediate call rejected. Since the >phone does not show up as online in MSN messanger, I suspect that the lack >of presence is the problem. Any thoughts? These are two different things: ability to register and ability to share current presence status. With 7960, you are able to register so that people can reach you at your current address. 7960 has no "presence disclosure" support -- if you want to see that the phone is on-line in your messenger, you will have to use a presence agent inbetween. We're working on it, but it is not currently part of SER. The UsrLoc dump bellow shows a valid Test entry -- so the registration must have proceeded well. If you are not able to call the user test@yourdomain, the error will be probably somewhere else. Please send me your configuration file and network dumps (gained using e.g. ngrep utility) -- I'll be glad to review it. -Jiri > I will try the users list, and >Cisco as a last resort. > >Thanks, >Dan > >Here is my serctl ul show results: >~~~Contact(0x402f0788)~~~ >domain : 'location' >aor : 'Test' >Contact: 'sip:Test@199.254.167.202:5060' >Expires: 1983 >q : 0.00 >Call-ID: '000a8a93-d466000b-389ca1b7-74778f1a(a)199.254.167.202' >CSeq : 101 >State : CS_SYNC >next : (nil) >prev : (nil)
