Kamailio 3.0 Config

This page provides guidelines to get the default config file of Kamailio 1.5.x working with SIP Router core.

Functionalities:

• SIP routing
• User location
• Authentication
• Accounting
• NAT traversal
• Presence server

It is highly recommended that you have Kamailio 1.5.x installed already so you can use the additional tools coming with that version and not yet included in SIP Router. See here a step by step guide to install Kamailio 1.5.x from SVN

The steps here are given for Unbuntu/Debian based distributions and should be easy to adapt to other Linux distros.

To be able to follow the guidelines from this document you need root access.

The following packages are required before proceeding to the next steps.

• git client: apt-get install git-core - it is recommended to have the latest version, which might not be part of the distribution yet, but you can get it from: http://git-scm.com/

• gcc compiler: apt-get install gcc

• flex - apt-get install flex

• bison - apt-get install bison

• libmysqlclient15-dev - apt-get install libmysqlclient15-dev

• make - apt-get install make

First of all, you have to create a directory on the file system where the sources will be stored.

  mkdir -p /usr/local/src/sr
  
  cd /usr/local/src/sr

Download the sources from GIT using the following command.

git clone --depth 1 git://git.sip-router.org/sip-router

Next step is to edit Makefile files to include the MySQL module.

  cd sip-router
  
  vim Makefile

Remove db_mysql from exclude_modules variable.

Note: if you need PCRE-dependent modules (e.g., lcr, dialplan, regexp), instal the PCRE devel library and uncomment

Once the mysql module was removed from excluded modules list, you can compile:

  make all

When the compilation is ready, install with the following command:

make install

The binaries and executable scripts were installed in:

  /usr/local/sbin

These are:

• ser - SIP Router binary

To be able to use the binaries from command line, make sure that '/usr/local/sbin' is set in PATH environment variable. You can check that with 'echo $PATH'. If not and you are using 'bash', open '/root/.bash_profile' and at the end add:

PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/sbin
export PATH

SIP Router modules are installed in:

/usr/local/lib/ser/modules/

The documentation and readme files are installed in:

/usr/local/share/doc/ser/

The man pages are installed in:

/usr/local/share/man/man5/
/usr/local/share/man/man8/

The configuration file was installed in:

/usr/local/etc/ser/ser.cfg

However, this configuration file is not the one used by Kamailio (OpenSER) 1.5.x. Section 2 includes it.

• this is the configuration file from Kamailio (OpenSER) 1.5.x adapted for the development version based on SIP-Router.org project
• it has turned on most of the features that are by default commented (authentication, accounting, nat traversal, presence)
• copy it and paste into /usr/local/etc/ser/kamailio.org

# Refer to the Core CookBook at http://www.kamailio.org/dokuwiki/doku.php
# for an explanation of possible statements, functions and parameters.
#
# There are comments showing how to enable different features in th econfig
# file. Such commented code starts with #X# where X is a letter to identify
# a feature. Delete entire #X# if you want to enable that feature. Next are
# sed commands that help you enable such features.
#
# *** To enamble mysql execute:
#     sed -i 's///g' kamailio.cfg
#
# *** To enamble authentication execute:
#     - enable mysql
#     sed -i 's///g' kamailio.cfg
#     - add users using 'kamctl'
#
# *** To enamble persistent user location execute:
#     - enable mysql
#     sed -i 's///g' kamailio.cfg
#
# *** To enamble presence server execute:
#     - enable mysql
#     sed -i 's///g' kamailio.cfg
#
# *** To enamble nat traversal execute:
#     sed -i 's///g' kamailio.cfg
#     - install RTPProxy: http://www.rtpproxy.org
#     - start RTPProxy:
#        rtpproxy -l _your_public_ip_ -s udp:localhost:7722
#
# *** To enhance accounting execute:
#     - enable mysql
#     sed -i 's///g' kamailio.cfg
#     - add following columns to database
# ALTER TABLE acc ADD COLUMN src_user VARCHAR(64) NOT NULL DEFAULT '';
