[Freeswitch-users] Best Way To Chat / Presence / File Xfer

Fri Nov 25 20:53:31 MSK 2016

Thanks for the advice – I ended up installing openfire and jitsi (desktop) and  Bria (Mobile).  Seems to be the most painless in the short term.  Both clients accept SIP and XMPP with video, chat and presence.  The only drawback is that Bria doesn’t seem to support the video bridging or XMPP file transfers.  In the  long run, I am going to play with verto and see what I come up with.

Cheers

Thanks!

Many things depend on client capabilities. I.e. jitsi may act as SIP cleint and XMPP client. Linphone can act as SIP client (including SIP SIMPLE), etc.

In the first example we can setup separate XMPP server and configure client app.

But there is some draft - https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-mmusic-file-transfer-mech-11 (sorry for maybe obsoleted doc, I beleive there is more fresh standard). Kamailio supports MSRP for example. And I think that it can be solution of this issue.

>From the other side Kamailio can act as XMPP gateway also.  In this use case there is SIP proxy and XMPP server still separate. But one entry point for client app. 

Sorry for mess of thoughts.  I'm investigating this topic too.

This is something we’ve also been looking into.

I believe the FreeSWITCH Verto module can support these features over WebRTC and it looks very promising but you would need to develop the client app or web page to facilitate this, you’re best bet would be to chat with FreeSWITCH Solutions.

We have some fairly tight deadlines so we’re planning to re-visit Verto at a later date, for the time being we intend to use the Jitsi softphone client (javascript based) with a combination of SIP (FreeSWITCH) and XMPP you might be able to package this into a phone app.

Hello,

Been a user and fan of Freeswitch for two years now – thank you for the great software!

I’ve done days of research and would like to reach out to see if anyone else has some ideas here:

We are looking into giving all of our techs a softphone for their mobile device so they can communicate back to base and to each other while out in the field.  Our desired features are as follows:

-          Video (for troubleshooting equipment with other remote techs)

-          Chat (for quick updates)

-          Group Chat (for group reminders)

-          Page (reach out to a busy individual with an important message)

-          Group Page (reach out to a busy group of workers with an important message)

-          File Transfer (send each other marketing material and tech manuals on the fly)

-          Presence (so employees can let everyone else know if they are available)

Video – Check, Working

Chat – Check, SIMPLE, Working

Group Chat – Not an option with SIMPLE?, Not working

Page – Check, Working

Group Page – Check, Working

File Transfer – Not an option with SIMPLE?, Not working

Presence – I have BLF working great, but what about extended presence such as ‘busy’ or ‘I’m a leprechaun’

Do I have to start using XMPP for these things?  It could complicate the setup three-fold if I have to go that route and I would rather not….  But if I have to, is there documents supporting a configuration that includes Freeswitch for voice/video and XMPP for everything else?

Also, does anyone have a suggestion for a mobile softphone with video, chat, file xfer and can be provisioned server side? (I’ve tried the Grandstream Wave, but it cannot use an HTTPS server with authentication for some reason so I’m looking for more options)

Thanks in advance for advice!

Adrian
