Directly jumping to Kamailio-Asterisk integration is not going to be a useful way to start any technology. First try and understand how kamailio works like: - Uses of its core modules - Parameters to pass these module - Routing logic like you should understand the meaning of different routes in the default config, their flow. - Instead of moving on directly to load balancing just try and RELAY a call to your Asterisk Media Server from Kamailio (look for t_relay).

Integrating Kamailio-Asterisk is not a big deal, but first you need to understand basics of Kamailio and its script.

Register @Kamailio --> set a destination URI - Simply hard-code for understanding so set $du = "sip:" + Request-URI@Asterisk-IP -> then t_relay() -> you will receive a call on Asterisk if you have a dialplan set for the trunk/context created you will receive the call.

Note: This method is just for you to understand.

Go through the documentation available, refer to the Building Telephony Systems book, try and add logs to understand the call flow, routing etc

SIP-Fundamentals are prerequisite you must understand a little more than basic SIP technology knowledge to get started.

Kamailio is a complex and esoteric piece of software, one that definitely requires understanding of SIP protocol mechanics to grasp. Even so, it will be a slow process, and requires patience above all else. You shouldn't be frustrated with yourself for not immediately comprehending everything. Just take it step-by-step, with the goal of learning more every day.

Cheers,

I successfully integrated Kamailio and Asterisk. We started with pure kamailio and sip phones. I mean - kamailio and couple of sip phones registered to it, calls between them etc. Then we added Asterisk, forward from Kamailio to Asterisk and forward from Asterisk to Kamailio. In our case - Kamailio works as load-balance and for user registration. And Asterisk do other tasks.

Hello Nishar,

Take a look at the Asipto Knowledgebase, they have good tutorials.

http://kb.asipto.com/asterisk:index

Good luck.

Hi,

Which document did you follow ?

Can you share me the URL ?

I don't know from where i have to start. I have successfully installed and configured kamailio server. Now i am able to register softphone to it. Now my next step step is integration part with Asterisk Server. Here i am struggling a little bit and using individual servers(Two VMs) for Asterisk and Kamailio for the testing.

Regards,

Nishar Hamsa.
