\nWanna be a real VoIP nerd? :-) Let’s use Linphone<\/a> from a command line!<\/p>\n

1. ‘linphonec’ – enter the CLI.
\n2. ‘help’ – list available commands. Now it’s time to create a profile and connect to PBX
\n3. ‘help proxy’ – show help.
\n3.1. ‘proxy add’ – and press Enter. Answer to the appeared questions (just look at listing below):<\/p>\n

linphonec> proxy add\nAdding new proxy setup. Hit ^D to abort.\nEnter proxy sip address: 10.1.51.13\nYour identity for this proxy: sip:1301@10.1.51.13\nDo you want to register on this proxy (yes\/no): yes\nSpecify register expiration time in seconds (default is 600): \nExpiration: 0 seconds\nSpecify route if needed: \nNo route specified.\n--------------------------------------------\nsip address: \nroute: \nidentity: sip:1301@10.1.51.13\nregister: yes\nexpires: 0\nregistered: no\n--------------------------------------------\nAccept the above proxy configuration (yes\/no) ?: yes\nProxy added.\nlinphonec> \nPassword for 1301 on \"pbx.secretcompany.com\": MeGaSeCuRePaSs\n\nlinphonec> Unregistration on sip:10.1.51.13 done.\nlinphonec><\/pre>\n
Yes, the message ‘Unregistration on sip:10.1.51.13 done.’ seems strange, but tcpdump shows that everything is OK.<\/p>\n
3.2. Now we may list our proxies:<\/p>\n
linphonec> proxy list\n****** Proxy 0 - this is the default one - *******\nsip address: \nroute: \nidentity: sip:1301@10.1.51.13\nregister: yes\nexpires: 0\nregistered: no\nlinphonec><\/pre>\n
4. Let’s call via default proxy:<\/p>\n
linphonec> call 79991234567\nEstablishing call id to <sip:79991234567@10.1.51.13>, assigned id 1\nContacting <sip:79991234567@10.1.51.13>\nlinphonec> Call 1 to <sip:79991234567@10.1.51.13> in progress.\nlinphonec> Remote ringing.\nlinphonec> Early media.\nlinphonec> Call 1 with <sip:79991234567@10.1.51.13> early media.\nCall 1 with <sip:79991234567@10.1.51.13> connected.\nCall answered by <sip:79991234567@10.1.51.13>.\nlinphonec> Media streams established with <sip:79991234567@10.1.51.13> for call 1 (audio).<\/pre>\n
<\/pre>\n
We may look active calls with ‘calls’ command.
\nThis is how it looks like while ringing:<\/p>\n
linphonec> calls\nCall states\nId |            Destination              |      State      |    Flags   |\n------------------------------------------------------------------------\n2  | sip:79991234567@10.1.51.13          | OutgoingEarlyMedia | \n<\/pre>\n
And this is how it looks like during an established call:<\/p>\n
linphonec> calls\nCall states\nId |            Destination              |      State      |    Flags   |\n------------------------------------------------------------------------\n2  | sip:79991234567@10.1.51.13          | StreamsRunning  | \n<\/pre>\n
If you want to terminate a call, just type ‘terminate’ and press Enter.<\/p>\n
If you have some troubles with sound and your PC is behind NAT, play with following parameters: ‘firewall’ and ‘nat’. Maybe you need ‘firewall none’ (it helped me at previous linphonec setup with one-way sound).<\/p>\n
5. You may quit linphonec with ‘quit’ command. And these are history log, call log and configuration file in your home directory:<\/p>\n
lexus@lexus:~$ ls -lh .linph*\n-rw------- 1 lexus lexus  162 \u043d\u043e\u044f\u0431. 24 15:10 .linphonec_history\n-rw------- 1 lexus lexus 2,5K \u043d\u043e\u044f\u0431. 24 15:10 .linphonerc\n<\/pre>\n
