Daniel-
I haven't used such scenario so far and not a big
linux network routing
expert here, so the command you use for bridging do not help me too much.
When I need to bridge two network then I use rtpproxy in bridging mode,
like the example I pointed in a previous email, and all run fine.
Thanks for your reply Daniel. Our concern with using rtpproxy for bridging is that we may
end up with less call
capacity. We don't want to touch in user space packets that don't need decryption
and transcoding -- we want to let
them through to the other network using Linux bridging and the 2 NICs.

Daniel,
Thanks once again for your reply. I present below a more detailed
system description. The first ASCII sketch depicts the setup we have
in our lab here and the second ASCII sketch depicts the dataflow we
are working towards.
System setup:
-------------
------------
| Internet |
------------
|
|
------|------------------------
| | CentOS v5.4 |
| ---|---- -------- |
| | NIC1 |<------>| NIC2 | | <- Server 1
| | eth0 | bridge | eth1 | |
| -------- ----|--- |
| Rtpproxy,Kamailio | |
-------------------------|-----
|
|<- Cross over cable
|
-----------
|CentOS v5.4|
| Asterisk | <- Server 2
-----------
Dataflow:
---------
------------------
|SIP Caller's |
|Encrypted SIP |
|(Port9090) + |
|UDP |
|(Port10000-20000)|
-----------------
|
|Public IP
---|-----------------------

|| NIC1 |<------>| NIC2 | | -----------
|| eth0 | bridge | eth1 |->-| Asterisk |
| --|----- --|--|- | |CentOS v5.4|
| v port 9090 | | | | Server 2 |
| --|--------------- | | | -----------
||Libnetfilter_queue|| | |
| --|--------------- | | |
| v | | |
| --|------- | | |
||Decryption| ^ ^ |

| | |Kamailio|--->- | |
| v -------- | |
| | | |
| |UDPports | |
| -|-- -------- | |
||srtp|->--|rtpproxy|->- |
| ---- -------- |
| Server 1,CentOS v5.4 |
---------------------------
Questions:
----------
1) Is it common practice to implement "Decryption" and "srtp" as
shown in the dataflow diagram? If not, what is a more appropriate
place to implement them ?
2) Once deployed, will such as system be capable of handling several
hundreds or thousands of calls ?
Wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Thanks and Regards,
Vikram.
PS : Here is the script used to setup the bridge between eth0 and eth1
brctl addbr br0
brctl stp br0 on
brctl addif br0 eth0
brctl addif br0 eth1
ifdown eth0 1>/dev/null 2>&1
ifdown eth1 1>/dev/null 2>&1
ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0 up
ifconfig eth1 0.0.0.0 up
ifconfig br0 64.221.148.221 netmask 255.255.255.224 up
route add default gw 64.221.148.220
for file in br0 eth0 eth1
do
echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/${file}/proxy_arp
echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/${file}/forwarding
done;
echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

probably your diagram is not displayed properly by the email client,
since I do not really get what you wanted to draw.
However, in the kamailio server, if you have two network interfaces,
run kamailio to listen on both and rtpproxy in bridging mode between
them. Then rtpproxy will get packets coming on eth0 and send onver
eth1 and viceversa. I gave you the path in the source three where
you find an example to start with (in my previous email).
Cheers,
Daniel
