Excuse my asking: What IS the point of doing accounting with
openser,
if it will never be accurate?
That's not true. If you use OpenSer + Radius ACC + MediaProxy + CDRTool
(optional) you can get 99% accurate: if a UAC hangs down then it will not
send a BYE but neither RTP so MediaProxy will detect it and update vía
Radius
or SQL.
Other way is using OpenSer ACC in conjunction with a B2BUA or gateways
supporting Session Timers. In this case, if the UAC crashes it will not
respond to the re-INVITE/UPDATE and the B2BUA/gateway will send a BYE so
OpenSer will account the session properly.
AFAIK those are the existintg ACC ways using accounting into a proxy.
In which case, we STILL depend on a third party NOT BEING openser...
Just a question:
Is there any plan to implement this? i.e. sending an OPTIONS to the UACs to
make sure they are online whilst in a call and ending the dialog if there is
not answer?
