I corrected an error with my dispatcher configuration and now, I do hit the
code where
ds_select_dst ("1", "4")
is no longer null.
However, while the xlog I added says uac_req_send () is called, nothing is
sent. The xlog prints out the value of $uac_req(hdrs) as
Contact: <sip:101@192.168.1.101:5060>#015#012Expires: 600#015
after which the uac_req_send () is called.
I am not sure if this is the correct way? What am I missing?
Oh, nothing shows up in the tcpdump trace (only the OPTIONS message for the
asterisk<->kamailio peering shows up).

Thanks, guys!
Sammy, I tried your code in REGFWD, but unfortunately, it does not forward
anything to Asterisk. I can confirm this because it keeps going into the
else clause in the REGFWD (which I added to confirm). My current REGFWD
looks like this:
route[REGFWD] {
if(!is_method("REGISTER"))
{
return;
}
xlog ("L_DEBUG", "MYDEBUG: In REGFWD");
if(!ds_select_dst("1", "4")) {
$var(rip) = $(du{s.select,1,:});
$var(rport) = $(du{s.select,2,:});
$uac_req(method)="REGISTER";
$uac_req(ruri)="sip:" + $var(rip) + ":" + $var(rport)
+
";transport=tcp";
$uac_req(furi)="sip:" + $au + "@" + $var(rip);
$uac_req(turi)="sip:" + $au + "@" + $var(rip);
$uac_req(hdrs)="Contact: <sip:" + $au + "@
192.168.1.101:5060" + ">\r\n";
xlog ("L_DEBUG", "MYDEBUG: In REGFWD, sending
registration
info to Asterisk at $uac_req(ruri)");
if($sel(contact.expires) != $null)
$uac_req(hdrs)= $uac_req(hdrs) + "Expires: " +
$sel(contact.expires) + "\r\n";
else
$uac_req(hdrs)= $uac_req(hdrs) + "Expires: " +
$hdr(Expires) + "\r\n";
uac_req_send();
}
else
{
xlog ("L_DEBUG", "In REGFWD, not forwarding!");
}
}
My entire kamailio.cfg file is here:
https://gist.github.com/ticklingcontest/f96aa4d08b08dc4643056d73da24f0a5
Any insight is appreciated. Thanks again.
My dispatcher at the moment has only one Asterisk server. My endpoint
registers (auth with realtime DB in Mysql), but the registration
information does not reach Asterisk.
My kamailio box is peering with the asterisk box like so:
root@asterisk:~# more /etc/asterisk/pjsip_wizard.conf
[kamailio]
type = wizard
sends_auth = no
sends_registrations = no
remote_hosts = 192.168.1.101
server_uri_pattern = sip:${REMOTE_HOST}\;transport=tcp
client_uri_pattern = sip:${REMOTE_HOST}\;transport=tcp
contact_pattern = sip:${REMOTE_HOST}\;transport=tcp
outbound_auth/username = dispatcher
aor/qualify_frequency = 0
endpoint/context = from-external ;;; change later
endpoint/disallow = all ;;; change later
endpoint/allow = ulaw ;;; change later
endpoint/dtmf_mode=rfc4733
endpoint/media_address=192.168.1.101 ;;
aor/qualify_frequency = 15
BTW, my intention is to store the registrations on the Asterisk servers as
well as my ARI code depends on it. As soon I get the single Asterisk
situation working, I intend adding more servers to check the load balancing
and REGISTER forwarding, and to Colin's point, the business of just using
Kamailio as an outbound proxy.
Again, any insight wrt why no REGISTERs are forwarding to Asterisk is
appreciated. Why is ds_select_dst("1", "4") evaluating to false for
me?
My dispatcher info:
root@kamailio:/etc/kamailio# kamctl dispatcher show
dispatcher gateways
+----+-------+-------------------+-------+----------+-------+-------------+
| id | setid | destination | flags | priority | attrs | description |
+----+-------+-------------------+-------+----------+-------+-------------+

If you're using Kamailio as a registrar, then
it would make the most
sense to also use it as your outbound proxy for Asterisk.
This would mean whenever Asterisk needs to dial an extension, it would
instead make a SIP call to your Kamailio instance which would then perform
the lookup, forking, and forwarding.
Is there a reason this wouldn't work in your infrastructure? If for some
reason it can't - though I can't imagine how - then I don't see the purpose
in using Kamailio as a registrar at all. You should just forward everything
to Asterisk since it needs to be there anyway.
Best,
Colin

Hi Tickles,
a) Have you tried doing this on Asterisk realtime ? for any regular
direct registering extension w/o kamailio(even before kamailio) ? If an
extension registers to one asterisk the rest of the boxes would know where
to contact this extension via realtime-db ? I'd say give that a try and it
may solve your problem, else using this REGFWD block you can parallel fork
this register request to ALL of your boxes and everybox would think it is
registered locally ! (not a recommended option I must say)
b) If you ignore my previous comment of parallel forking registers,
using this REGFWD block you can use dispatcher module to replace the
$var(rip) and $sel(cfg_get.asterisk.bindport) by changing your REGFWD
block like this:
route[REGFWD] {
if(!is_method("REGISTER"))
{
return;
}
if(!ds_select_dst("1", "4")) {
$var(rip) = $(du{s.select,1,:});
$var(rport) = $(du{s.select,2,:});
$uac_req(method)="REGISTER";
$uac_req(ruri)="sip:" + $var(rip) + ":" + $var(rport)
+
";transport=tcp";
$uac_req(furi)="sip:" + $au + "@" + $var(rip);
$uac_req(turi)="sip:" + $au + "@" + $var(rip);
$uac_req(hdrs)="Contact: <sip:" + $au + "@"
+ $sel(cfg_get.kamailio.bindip)
+ ":" + $sel(cfg_get.kamailio.bindport)
+ ">\r\n";
if($sel(contact.expires) != $null)
$uac_req(hdrs)= $uac_req(hdrs) + "Expires: "
+ $sel(contact.expires) + "\r\n";
else
$uac_req(hdrs)= $uac_req(hdrs) + "Expires: "
+ $hdr(Expires) + "\r\n";
uac_req_send();
}
}
In summary, depending upon your business logic/use case there could be
other ways to make this work as well.

Sammy

Hello,
When using Kamailio with the dispatcher module for Asterisk load
balancing, I am offloading REGISTERs to Kamailio (works fine), but would
like to forward the REGISTERs to Asterisk so that outgoing calls from
Asterisk will be possible. I know this is not strictly necessary (e.g.,
just use Kamailio to forward everything), but I have a lot of application
logic behind my Asterisk boxes (using ARI) and so I don't want that to
break. Thereby, I do need this information in Asterisk as soon as possible
from Kamailio.
Let's say I have three boxes Asterisk_1, Asterisk_2 and Asterisk_3 in
the dispatcher module like so:
1 sip:192.168.1.201:5060;transport=tcp
1 sip:192.168.1.202:5060;transport=tcp
1 sip:192.168.1.203:5060;transport=tcp
My system has endpoints as numerical extensions, from 101 to 110. When
a new endpoint registers with kamailio (and authenticates), I would like to
send the REGISTER to Asterisk. But I have the following questions:
(a) Which Asterisk? I could send it to a round-robinned Asterisk (say,
Asterisk_2), but that Asterisk may not be the one responsible for handling
calls outbound for the endpoint that just registered. Even if I use "hash
over auth username" instead of round-robin (In
http://www.kamailio.org/docs/modules/4.0.x/modules/dispatcher.html#idp16940…,
choose 5 for "alg", for example) that wont solve this problem as an
outbound request may come from another Asterisk box which won't have the
requisite registration information. Should I forward REGISTERs to all
Asterisk boxes? Maybe I won't have to deal with this issue as I use
realtime and so the REGISTER information, sent to one Asterisk box, is
available to all Asterisk boxes after the write to the realtime DB. Is my
understanding correct?
(b) How do I do this in kamailio.cfg? With some examples on the
Internet for WITH_ASTERISK directive, I see that you do
route[REGFWD] {
if(!is_method("REGISTER"))
{
return;
}
$var(rip) = $sel(cfg_get.asterisk.bindip);
$uac_req(method)="REGISTER";
$uac_req(ruri)="sip:" + $var(rip) + ":" +
$sel(cfg_get.asterisk.bindport) + ";transport=tcp";
$uac_req(furi)="sip:" + $au + "@" + $var(rip);
$uac_req(turi)="sip:" + $au + "@" + $var(rip);
$uac_req(hdrs)="Contact: <sip:" + $au + "@"
+ $sel(cfg_get.kamailio.bindip)
+ ":" + $sel(cfg_get.kamailio.bindport)
+ ">\r\n";
if($sel(contact.expires) != $null)
$uac_req(hdrs)= $uac_req(hdrs) + "Expires: " +
$sel(contact.expires) + "\r\n";
else
$uac_req(hdrs)= $uac_req(hdrs) + "Expires: " +
$hdr(Expires) + "\r\n";
uac_req_send();
}
What is the equivalent for when you are using the dispatcher module and
the kamailio.bindip and asterisk.bindip etc. are not set in the
configuration, but instead should be procured from elsewhere?
Any help is appreciated.
