“thanks to SIP/2559-00559bad” – this is a name of the channel who forwarded the call, either manually or by settings configured in the UAC.

OpenSIPS: Adding CALLERID (display-name) to calls from registered users

Thursday, November 21st, 2019

This is about adding a display name to the calls from registered users. An analogue of Asterisk’s Set(CALLERID(name)=John Doe).

The idea was to move SIP accounts from Asterisk to OpenSIPS.

In case of using Asterisk we would configure something like:

[user222]
context=o.local
secret=4EwIWikV
callerid=Alexey Kazantsev <222>

How to achieve the same with OpenSIPS? This is the solution:

  • add desired display-names to ‘rpid’ columns of the ‘subscriber‘ table:
Adding desired callerid to ‘rpid’ column of the SIP-account.
modparam("auth_db", "load_credentials", "$avp(display)=rpid")
  • add ‘attr_avp‘ parameter to ‘registrar’ module settings:
modparam("registrar", "attr_avp", "$avp(display)")
  • and finally some magic in the script, to add the display-name to the INVITE request from the registered user, going through our OpenSIPS SBC:
# call from registered user -> add callerid
# and forward to mediaserver for call recording, etc.
if(is_registered("location"))
{
# replace only display and do not touch uri
uac_replace_from("$avp(display)","");
rewritehostport("10.145.213.63:5067");
route(relay);
}

How it looks like?

This is the INVITE coming to OpenSIPS:

2019/11/21 14:16:55.247856 10.145.213.64:5061 -> 10.145.213.63:5060
INVITE sip:111@taxsee.com SIP/2.0
Via: SIP/2.0/UDP 10.145.213.64:5061;branch=z9hG4bK-3822b894
From: <sip:222@taxsee.com>;tag=48b014547f398294o1

And this is the same INVITE leaving OpenSIPS, being modified:

2019/11/21 14:16:55.252518 10.145.213.63:5060 -> 10.145.213.63:5067
INVITE sip:111@10.145.213.63:5067 SIP/2.0
Record-Route: <sip:10.145.213.63;lr;ftag=48b014547f398294o1>
Via: SIP/2.0/UDP 10.145.213.63:5060;branch=z9hG4bK77e6.9bb3aa72.0
Via: SIP/2.0/UDP 10.145.213.64:5061;branch=z9hG4bK-3822b894
From: "Alexey Kazantsev" <sip:222@taxsee.com>;tag=48b014547f398294o1

The information stored in the ‘rpid’ column (in our example, or some custom in your architecture) is fetched to AVP at each REGISTER/save, so you do not need to reload anything to take changes in effect.

The callerid info is seen in console output via ‘opensipsctl fifo ul_dump’ command:

	AOR:: 222@taxsee.com
		Contact:: sip:222@10.145.213.64:5061 Q=

UAC settings: forming INVITE with RURI containing a domain

Thursday, November 7th, 2019

Some notes how to configure Linphone and Cisco SPA-303 to send INVITE with domain in RURI, assuming that your proxy has a different IP address than the resolved address of the domain.

Linphone: add “Route” parameter.
Cisco SPA-303: Outbound proxy, Use outbound proxy = yes, Use OB proxy id Dialog = yes.
Resulting INVITE to a private IP containing a domain in RURI.

That’s all. Have fun!

Inserting Asterisk in your call flow

Wednesday, November 6th, 2019

Let’s imagine that we’ve upgraded our VoIP network which was formerly based on geographically distributed Asterisks.

We configured OpenSIPS servers as registrars, connected them together in a full-sharing usrloc cluster and now we need to route calls between endpoints not directly, but through Asterisks – to handle our calls in a familiar way (CDR records, call recording via MixMonitor, some AGI scripts, etc).

We have to create something like that:

This is a code snippet of OpenSIPS with IP address 10.145.213.63:

	# initial INVITE
	if(is_method("INVITE") && !has_totag())
	{
		t_on_failure("1");

		# call from registered user ->
                # forward to mediaserver for call recording, etc.
		if(is_registered("location"))
		{
			$ru="sip:" + $oU + "@" + "10.145.213.63:5067";
			route(relay);
		}

		# call from Asterisk? -> change domain part before doing lookup
		if($sp=="5067")
		{
			$rd="taxsee.com";
		}

		$var(lookup_flags) = "m";
		if(cluster_check_addr("1", "$si")) {
			xlog("si: $si . $rm from cluster, doing local lookup only\n");
		} else {
			xlog("si: $si . $rm from outside, doing global lookup\n");
			$var(lookup_flags) = $var(lookup_flags) + "g";
		}

		if(!lookup("location", "$var(lookup_flags)"))
		{
			t_reply("404", "Not Found");
			exit;
		}

		if(has_body("application/sdp"))
		{
			rtpengine_offer("RTP/AVP replace-origin replace-session-connection ICE=remove");
		}

	} # initial INVITE end

	route(relay);

A SIP peer to this OpenSIPS in Asterisk sip.conf looks like this:


[opensips]
type=peer
context=office
host=10.145.213.63
port=5060

And a dialplan for CDR/MixMonitor/etc:

context office
{
	_XXX =>
	{
		NoOp(imagine this is CDR, MixMonitor, AGI);
		Dial(SIP/opensips/${EXTEN});
		Hangup();
	};
};

UPD: assuming your SIP acoounts DB has moved from Asterisk to OpenSIPS cluster, its desirable not just processing REGISTER requests and doing authentication, but also adding caller ids to your SIP accounts.
