REMINDER: Weekly FreeSWITCH Conference Scheduled for October 9, 11AM CST (GMT -6)
by Michael Collins 12 Oct '09

12 Oct '09

Just a friendly reminder that we will be having the weekly FreeSWITCH conference call tomorrow, October 9th, at 11AM Central. The agenda is updated: http://bit.ly/lzEYy The conference lasts for six hours, so feel free to dial in at any time. We usually start going over the agenda about 15 minutes after the conference starts. The agenda itself only takes about an hour or two, after which we spend most of the time discussing whatever is on the minds of the community members. Remember, the core FreeSWITCH development team of Anthony Minessale (primary author, lead architect), Mike Jerris (build master), and Brian West (all around VoIP expert, FS configuration guru) are present for the whole conference. This is a great time to ask questions about the project. Please join us! Call in options include SIP, Skype, PSTN, and Jabber. Please see the agenda for more information. Looking forward to speaking with you all tomorrow, Michael

Dear All, I am using ESL.pm module to control the dial plan application. I want to play some music while executing the some external scripts. I executed park after then I executed the playback the music didn't play. Could any one please explain how can I solve this problem without using async mode in socket application? Thanks, Velusamy.

On the handling of SIP headers
by Kristian Kielhofner 12 Oct '09

12 Oct '09

Hello everyone, In using FS for various scenarios I've noticed some behavior that I'm not sure is completely "proper". Given that this probably lives in mod_sofia who knows what's really "proper". It is SIP after all... So the issue comes up when using FreeSWITCH as a B2BUA and bridging between endpoints (very common). Should FreeSWITCH copy the X- headers (possibly others) as it does now? I'd like to think it shouldn't by default and the behavior should be one of: 1) Don't pass X-* (or anything else, really) from one leg to another. If you want to pass specific X- headers (or anything else), set them explicitly on the outbound leg. 2) Make the behavior configurable with a channel variable and/or sofia config option: {sip_pass_headers=all|none|X-MyCustomHeaderByName} Thoughts? -- Kristian Kielhofner http://www.astlinux.org http://blog.krisk.org http://www.star2star.com http://www.submityoursip.com http://www.voalte.com

SLAs and BLAs
by Jerry Richards 11 Oct '09

11 Oct '09

I can see how BLFs and Presence are managed, however I haven't found much documentation on SLAs and BLAs. What is the RFC(s) that Freeswitch used to implement SLAs and BLAs? Do they differ from BLFs? Best Regards, Jerry

gateway FS informs it's client FS about users hanged up with a long delay
by Maciej Aniserowicz 11 Oct '09

11 Oct '09

Hi, When I use two FreeSWITCH instances ('internal' and 'external'), all users register to the 'external' instance which acts as a gateway by 'internal' instance (which in turn is controlled by my applicaiton with commands sent by socket). When user hangs up, the 'hanged up' event is propagated to the 'internal' instance after a long time (~3 minutes) instead of being propagated immediately. What can cause this issue?

Gateways, configuration or directory with mod_xml_curl
by Eric Chamberlain 11 Oct '09

11 Oct '09

Hello, We are looking at Freeswitch to solve a problem of ours, we have thousands of users with individual gateway information. The user's will not register with us, but we need to register with their gateways on their behalf. Since users will be constantly adding/changing/deleting gateways, we figure mox_xml_curl is the best way to maintain the configuration. What we are not sure of is if we should be putting the gateway information in the directory entry for each user (gateways are not shared between users) or if the gateway should go in the configuration. If the gateway configuration is in the directory, how does sofia know when the gateway configuration changes? The reloadxml documentation doesn't talk about gateways in the directory, does it work with the directory. If so, is it one curl call or one call per user? Is there a way to tell sofia that only one user's gateway configuration has changed? Likewise with gateways in the configuration. Does reloadxml generate one curl call or many? In both cases, is there a way to minimize parsing the data that has not changed? -- Eric Chamberlain

More complex hunting question
by ivdreg ivdreg 11 Oct '09

11 Oct '09

Dear All, I'm trying to use FS with xml_curl as routing server for otgoing calls to my provides. Here is simplified setup: [REGISTRARs] ----> [APP SERVERs] ----> [ROUTING SERVER/FreeSwitch] ----> [SBC/no Transcoder]----> [Terminating GWs/ITSPs] Because of simplicity I do not use hunting functionality in SBC but only in FS. I try to avoid if possible any trascoding but there are cases that it is necessary. I want ROUTING SERVER to be configured in proxy_media mode or bypass_media but on some errors such as "415 Unsupported Media" that supposed are codec negotiation issue to hunt again via trascoder before SBC. Can someone help to find some elegant way functionality described below to be achieved via dialplan_xml ? Call to +XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX for example: available routes by priority are via: ITSP1,ITSP5,ITSP2,ITSP7 outgoing leg to ITSP1 - (returns unallocated number) outgoing leg to ITSP5 - (returns "415 Unsupported Media") new outgoing leg to ITSP5 again but via transcoder - (If call is connected OK, If other error hunt again to next GW - ITSP2) outgoing leg to ITSP2 - (returns "415 Unsupported Media") new outgoing leg to ITSP2 again but via transcoder - (If call is connected OK, If other error hunt again to next GW - ITSP7) outgoing leg to ITSP7 Remarks: Codec errors may be more that one (415 Unsupported Media/488 Not Acceptable Here ...) and number it ITSP/GW in not fixed. Thanks to all.

directory variables not set correct with the latest trunk
by Juan Backson 11 Oct '09

11 Oct '09

Hi, My application fails to set the appropriate variables using directory xml after using the latest trunk as of yesterday. My curl looks like: <document type="freeswitch/xml"> <section name="directory"> <domain name="192.168.1.102"> <user id="200002"> <params> <param name="password" value="123456"></param> <param name="dial-string" value="sofia/internal/sip:200002@192.168.1.11:29440 ;rinstance=0245b2a59ddff837"></param> </params> <variables> <variable name="account_id" value="20"></variable> <variable name="vm-code" value="1000"></variable> </variables> </user> </domain> </section> </document> In the info app, I am not seeing account-id and vm-code anymore. How to fix that? juan
